Excellent Quality, pleasure to wear |

I'm 5'7" 240lb and ended buying a Size 6 based on my experiences with Gis in the past. The quality of the Gi was fantastic and the material felt really good to wear when I initially received it; however, by shrinking it down I ended up sacrificing some of the flexibility and softness of the fabric and was still left pants which were too long to wear. It was only after all of this that I happened to read the washing instructions for the uniform which are as follows:
1 - Hand wash with fresh/cold water. Do not use warm or hot water. 2 - Use a detergent with least or no bleaching element in it. 3 - Do not use a dryer.
I think, for someone of my height/weight, that if you followed the washing instructions you could probably get away with a Size 5 uniform set, just remember to get a size 6 belt(it's been just big enough for me) as I'm sure the size 5 is a little to small. Ultimately I am very happy with the purchase as it is still the softest and most flexible Gi I have owned.
