I just started bjj classes, so I ordered 3 different sanabul gis to decide which would fit me best as my first gi. This means I'm very inexperienced and can't compare them to other brands and qualities, but I wanted to offer the differences I noticed between them for others looking for their first gi. I'm a 5'3" female weighing about 130 lbs with some curves for reference. I've listed the 3 I ordered and notes under about each:1.) Sanabul Essentials V.2 Ultra Light Pre Shrunk BJJ Jiu Jitsu Gi (Blue, A0) See Special Sizing Guide-Lightest and thinnest feel of the material of the three-Largest wingspan in the arms, about 1.5 inches longer on each arm than the core competition style-Shorter pant length than the core competition style by about a half to 1 inch-Soft wrist and ankle holes (in the pictures this is the royal blue one)2.) Sanabul Core Competition Brazilian Jiu Jitsu BJJ Gi (See Special Sizing Guide) (Black/Blue, A0)-Thickest and heaviest feel of material of the three-Smaller wingspan than the v.2 ultra light-Longer pant length than the v.2 ultra light-Just inside the sleeves and ankles, there is a sewn-in strip of fabric that is very sharp and scratchy around the edges. I don't know if this would become softer after washes, but it was a major deal breaker for me since it was actually painful to walk around in these when they brushed against my feet and ankles (in the pictures this is the black one with electric blue accents)3.) Sanabul New Item Women's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Gi (Black, W2) **This One**-Between the other two in material thickness and weight-Shortest wingspan by about half inch-Shortest pant length by about half inch-A bit higher waisted than the other two, which I liked since it hit at the small of my waist. This will help the pants from going anywhere while I'm rolling-Smooth and soft wrist and ankle holes (in the pictures, this is the black one with purple threading and accents)-Much more room in the pants around the butt and slimmer cut in the kimonoI haven't washed any of these and have only tried each on briefly, but I know that if any of these are too large, you can shrink them down with hot water in the wash and a warm tumble cycle in the drier. They all seem of about the same quality, and I don't imagine they would rip easily. The collar feels about the same stiffness on each.Overall, I would highly suggest girls get the women's style unless they have a very masculine build. The material strained a bit at the bottom of a squat for me in both of the male/unisex ones, but the women's style allowed a full and easy range of motion. There was also some less fabric bunching around the back and less wide shoulders in the women's. I didn't think it would be that noticeable of a difference between the unisex and female, but there is, so I'm glad I was able to figure out early on that I should only buy women's sized gis going forward.For guys, if you're really concerned about having longer pants or a heavier gi, I would suggest the competition core, but otherwise, because of the added sharp fabric around the sleeves and ankles and I imagine the extra trapped heat while wearing, I would advise to go for the v.2 ultra light. There may be some other slight differences, but these seemed the most noticeable to me.Also, note that none of them come with belts, so remember to purchase a belt separately. Happy rolling!**I'll be updating this review as I use this gi in classes**
