Great TKD pants Jun 25, 2010 These are great pants for Tae Kwon Do or really any martial art. They are heavy so I plan to use them during the winter.
Great pant... but May 12, 2010 I've only had the pant a few months and so far I love them. They're certainly heavy duty material yet after a few washes they began to soften up nicely. I like the double loops rather than one single one in the middle. The drawstring will probably never die yet still ties without coming undone if you give it a good tight pull. I'm only 5'10" and got the size 5. The fit is VERY loose and short, but I like them short so my heels don't catch in the back when I'm kicking. My only complaint is the stitching holding the drawstring tunnel together is already coming apart. I'll probably just hand sew it when it get a little worse, but I expected it to last MUCH longer befotre giving out.
Great Karate Pants May 04, 2010 Firstly this is my first experience with Piranha Gear and I am more than pleased with how they do business.
Secondly these pants are the perfect blend of comfort and strength. The material has a nice heavy feel to it but the interior of the waist is lined with softer material so its not scratching into you. They fasten with a drawstring so fit isn't a problem, and so far I've never had a problem with a simple bow knot coming undone during my training. They have a very nice range of motion, from butterfly stretches to high side kicks they don't restrict in any way.
My older Gis were made by Century and comparing that to Piranha Gear I can say I've definitely switched to Piranha. I stand about 6' 2" and wearing a size 6, the bottom of the legs comes to just about 2 inches above the ball of my heel.

Best Martial Arts Pants Jul 17, 2009 I respect all the Piranha gear stuff. They have great service and make great products. I needed a pair of heavy weight pants to go with my TKD black belt uniform. I tried several different ones but could never find something I liked. I tried these based on my experience with the company. These are perfect. They are traditional draw string waist with double loops so one can get the fit correctly. The cord stays tied without any problems which is great because sometimes this can be a problem. The material is nice and heavy but without being stiff so freedom of movement is no trouble. The pants are roomy enough that I can easily put on shin pads when sparring and get them off after which is something of a problem with other heavy weight pants.
I did not realize how much I liked these pants until I forgot my judo pants. I attend a judo class right after the TKD class I teach. I most often change into my judo gi but once I forgot my judo pants. These pants made it through a serious hour of grappling and did admirably.
These pants are comfortable enough while performing head kicks or trying for a triangle. I have these in two sizes. I am 6'1" and have both a size 5 and a size 6. The size 6 comes all the way down to the foot as most people wear TKD uniforms and the size 5 comes to the ball on the ankle.
