This is the best of the Japanese gi. It is the softest and
cut very large, which makes it very comfortable. It's also the
only one that's made in Okinawa instead of the mainland.
That's special to practitioners of traditional Okinawan arts.
Like all the high end Japanese gi, it has a bluish tint that
takes a while to go away, but I consider that a small price to
pay for such a high quality gi. This gi, like all the Japanese
gi, is very expensive, so you shouldn't consider it unless
your seriously committed to your training. I give it five
kiai.

The highest type of ruler is one of whose existence the
people are barely aware. Next comes one whom they love and
praise. Next comes one whom they fear. Next comes one
whom they despise and defy.
When you are lacking in faith, Others will be unfaithful
to you.
The Sage is self-effacing and scanty of words. When his
task is accomplished and things have been completed, All
the people say, "We ourselves have achieved it!"
