This size chart is for unisex sizes (A0 to A5) for all of our gis. We also offer our gis in womens' and kids' cuts.
You might find that your frame is suitable for multiple sizes - gi sizing is a matter of personal taste. If you like a tighter, more slim fitting cut you should err toward the smaller size. If you prefer extra room in your gi you can choose the larger size in your range.
| Size | Weight | Height |
| A0 | 140lbs and under | 5'5" and under |
| A0H | 120lbs to 175lbs | 5'5" and under |
| A1 | 120lbs to 165lbs | 5'5" to 5'9" |
| A1H | 160lbs to 200lbs | 5'5" to 5'9" |
| A1L | 120lbs to 165lbs | 5'8" to 5'11" |
| A2 | 150lbs to 190bs | 5'8" to 6' |
| A2H | 185lbs to 260lbs | 5'8" to 6' |
| A2L | 150lbs to 190lbs | 6' to 6'2" |
| A3 | 185lbs to 240lbs | 5'11" to 6'3" |
| A3H | 220lbs to 300+lbs | 5'11" to 6'3" |
| A3L | 190lbs to 230lbs | 6'2" to 6'6" |
| A4 | 220lbs to 280lbs | 6'3" to 6'6" |
| A5 | 240lbs and up | 6'5" and up |
While we use pre-shrunk fabric in all of our gis, you can still expect some shrinkage (especially if you're washing in hot water, or tumble drying). A good rule of thumb is heavier weight gis (like our Valiant or Calavera) will shrink more than lighter weight gis (like our Aeroweave). For more information on gi shrinkage, check out this video.
Not sure if you're choosing the right size? We get it, gi sizing can be tricky. That's why we offer totally free pre-paid returns.

With a buttery soft Sugar Skulls rashguard liner, our Calavera gi is the Cadillac of mid-weight gis. Competitors love this gi due to the balance it strikes in being difficult for an opponent to grip, without being so heavy that it becomes tough to make weight.
Gold Weave has long been a martial artist's favorite for its combination of softness and durability.
Our Calavera gi features a 450gsm Gold Weave Jacket, with 10oz Ripstop pants.
We reinforced the Calavera's collar with EVA to prevent your opponent from easily sinking in grips.
All of our gis are made with preshrunk cotton, but gold weave will still shrink some (especially if you're throwing it in the washer). Wash cold and hang dry for minimal shrinkages.
We lined the neck and upper back of this gi with rashguard, and it feels amazing every time you put it on.
Aside from the rashguard liner, we kept the accents on this gi understated and minimal. We want you to look sharp out there, not be a billboard for our brand.
Please note that our gis do not include belts.
Here are the weights of each size of our Calavera Gi:
A0: 3 lbs 5.3 oz
A0H: 3 lbs 9.0 oz
A1: 3 lbs 10.0 oz
A1H: 3 lbs 10.4 oz
A1L: 3 lbs 10.7 oz
A2: 3 lbs 11.1 oz
A2H: 4 lbs 8.6 oz
A2L: 3 lbs 13.3 oz
A3: 4 lbs 0.1 oz
A3H: 4 lbs 4.7 oz
A3L: 4 lbs 2.1 oz
A4: 4 lbs 6.3 oz
A5: 4 lbs 8.8 oz
These weights are for the colored versions. White gis are just slightly lighter, an ounce or two.
Don't forget to consider the weight of your belt and your underwear (yes, you'll be DQ'd if you they catch you going commando!).
Whether you're looking for a competition gi, or just want a solid go-to everyday gi, the Calavera is a solid choice.
The gi fit amazing and felt broken in right out of the bag
Quality of the Gi was nice. Honestly reading the reviews of the Gold weave, I was partially expecting some kind of silky smooth texture, but I'm glad it isn't that soft! It is very comfortable, and will likely order again in different color. I am considering the aeroweave because of the good reviews, but sometimes it's hard to try a new thing when somethings already good!
For sizing, I'm 5'8" 165 lbs, slightly top heavy build, slightly longer legs. I was torn on which size to go with and landed on A2. As expected, a bit large upon receipt, but I wanted to make sure I can put in dryer since I don't have a good place to hang dry. After drying medium heat, size fits me nicely. Kind of odd how it stretches out a tiny bit after a day's roll (nothing too much), but shrinks back down again after the wash/dry. None of my other pearl weaves did this. Will order same size next time.
Recommend!
I love this Gi
It's incredible, beyond my expectations. I'd go to the moon to attain this amazing gi. Incredible service as well.
Soft and nice even when it’s 450 gsm
