Buying your first Taekwondo uniform can be stressful and exciting at the same time. Here are 4 must’s when you go and start your shopping whether in a local martial arts store or online.
1, Check the Dojo Requirements
Always make sure you do this because you can have the coolest Taekwondo
uniform in the world but if you aren’t allowed to use it in class it will have to stay in your closet.
2, Matching Your Size and Build
You can always use a handy dandy martial arts uniform calculator like they have over at The MMA Zone.
3, Fabric Makeup and Quality Matters
The more the cotton and the heavier the higher the price. So if you are getting a 12oz. 100% cotton taekwondo uniform it will cost more than a 6oz. 45% cotton/55%polyester fabric taekwondo uniform.
4, Drawstring or Elastic Waistband
This comes down to comfort. I personally like a drawstring but I know of many other students that prefer elastic.
