Judo gi's run bigger than other martial art gi's in general. I'm 5'4" and I was swimming in a small, so a small should fit someone of your height well.

I'm 6'1/185 Ibs. and I chose to get a size 6 in the unbleached. After washing and use, it has become more comfortable and it fits correctly. I would reccomend a size 5 for you, just remember to wash in cold water and always hang dry your gi. Good luck

You need a 4. I have provided a link to a Gi size chart. http://kodokangear.com/adidas-size%20chart.html or kodokangear.com

Size 4 is a safe bet, after you put it through the wash and shrink it a bit.

My gi is a 5/190 & fits me great. Sizes are based on height & weight, so be sure to check those 2 things in order to get the right size.

For a short person, a 7" will be fine. A taller person ie: ht= 5'4" and over wld. need a 9". You can experiment. Get a box and trim it to the height of 9" to see if it feels OK. If you think it's kind of high, trim it down to 7". If I were you , I wld. sit down on the commode and put the box so you can check and see. It won't be a perfect measurement but somehow, it will give you an idea. You will also have to consider the height of your commode.Vick

I am 5'9 and 195 lb, also fairly muscular. I bought the 5 black and it was a bit big. I used it for a year and it was very good but big. I think #4 will be good for you, it is decent quality, one of the g's ripped during a JJitsu practice. But the guy I was fighting was a beast, so I still think the quality is decent for everyday practice.

Go with a medium, I'm 5'10 and got plenty of space left over both height and width wise.

Well I'm about the same height and weigh a little more so I recommend u go for an "A3" Gi. That's what I got and I have plenty of room

That's 5 Feet and almost 8 inches and about 165lbs. I'm just a little bigger than that. I use an A2 but it's a little big for me. So you could probably go A1, depending on how much you think you might grow. My Gi is shrinking a little after 6 months of weekly use and washings, but it's still big for an A2.

Hi Robert, I am not sure, but I think the sizes are identical even though I noticed that my judo gi is a little bigger than BJJ gi. Also the sleeves shrink a lot so I stopped using the dryer. Hope this helps

I am 5'9' wide shouldered, 280lbs. I got an 8 and fits shoulders good, belly ok. I would try the 7. But each company makes them different. If you are a huskier build I like the karate gi's from proforce and will be getting a judo gi from them soon.

Hmmm, I dont know what to say... It matters on height and leg length to be honest. I'm 15 and 5'7" and I use the medium and they fit perfectly, not to big or small. So, if you can tell me your height and if you have unusually long legs :P then i can recommend the size perfect for you.

The medium chest protector will be a perfect size for you. I am 6'0" and I ordered the medium because I didn't want the additional length to get in the way when I crouch behind the plate. I am extremely happy with my gear. Enjoy!

Hey! I don't know the numbers for it but Large size perfectly fits me and my height is 6.2 and slim. if your height less than 5.5 feet and slim then go for medium. I think for fat people extra large fits well. Hope you get a rough idea now.

I am 5'10" and 33"girth, sz 10 shoe, and got a medium, had a little extra length, but otherwise fit well, so use your judgement based on that. You should probably get the short length for sure. I have used them a couple times and they are great for the price. good luck

Going with the slightly bigger gi will allow you to shrink it a bit. I wear an A3 and it's a bit big, tried an A2 and it was too small to roll in comfortably.

I'm looking for an answer to this as well. I'm 5'10" and 185lb. Most of the people answering questions here are in the 170lb range. I have a Fuji gi and the A4 top fits just right, but the A4 pants are kind of loose. Everyone here seems to think the pants run large, so what I would really like is to get an A4 top and, maybe, A3 pants. I wonder if anyone sells like that.

I am 5'5" and I have the standard. I went to a local sporting goods store (Dicks) to be measured because I was not sure. I found out that you have to consider more than just height. I suggest you go to a store, get measured and then make your decision. Hope this helps!

I'm about 5'9", ordered a 26, and it was about ankle length. It depends on what you are using it for. If you are using it for kendo, go 26. I use mine for costuming. I use army blousing bands to cinch the legs about the top of black tabi boots to make a "tucked in" appearance as part of a ninja costume. Works great for that too. Hope this helps.

I'm around 5'10'', and I think my size 3 fits well.What you want to look for in hogu/chest guards is height; weight doesn't matter so much because the straps are made plenty long enough to fit just about any body. My brother is a bit taller than I am, and he's 170lbs. When he uses my chest guard, it's a little short (which leaves his body a little more exposed for low blows, if you know what I mean), but the straps fit him fine.Hope that helps.
