93brand debuted the "PALM" range years back with the Palm Gis, if you remember those gray contrast-collar Gis. But the recent blacked-out PALM nogi series is a move in the right direction. Subtle patterns throughout the main body, which consists primarily of a soft, low-sheen blend (midweight) with a perfect spandex content for great flexibility without losing the form and resiliency of the material. All graphics are infused into the fabric, ensuring nothing fades or peels with time. Form-fitting panels are kept nice and simple, no complex maze of seams and unnecessary blocks of added fabric. All panels assembled via flatlock stitch-work, using high-tensile thread that won't pop under pressure or restrict your movements on the mat. Men's issue feature a jacquard waistband with soft lining along the interior and extended/wrapped over upper edge, so the jacquard doesn't touch your skin. Internal drawstring with reinforced eyelets. Women's issue feature a two-layer high-waist, which tapers off toward the waistline. Upper edge features a ~1" elastic core, stitched directly to the top hem, so they stay in place without pinching excessively. Interior is blacked out to prevent light from going through and showing the color of your undies :) MEN'S Spats Size Guide XS: 125 lbs and under S: 125-145 lbs M: 145-165 lbs L: 165-190 lbs XL: 190-215 lbs 2XL: 210-240 lbs 3XL: 240 lbs and up WOMEN'S Spats Size Guide XS: 120 lbs and under S: 110-130 lbs M: 130-155 lbs L: 155-180 lbs XL: 175-205 lbs |
