I was wondering if anybody on the board has made any silk fighting garments. I have always been told to use trigger or a heavy cotton, but being the curious fool that i am i'm half tempted to try otherwise. Any thoughts?

Hiroda Silk has a couple of issues: One is that although it breaths, it does so at a slower rate than cotton and retains heat. Two, far more costly than cotton and once damaged, hard to repair. I have fought in silk keiko-gi and prefer cotton. |
