This is our outgoing Alpha kimono model - an updated iteration is available here.
Featuring a lightweight 350gsm pearl weave jacket and 8oz ripstop pants, the Alpha is an incredibly comfortable, hard-wearing, high-performing kimono and is of course, handmade to the very high standards you've come to expect from AESTHETIC.
Perfect for beginners to the sport, seasoned competitors and anyone who wants a solid, tough and minimal gi - at an unbeatable price.

The Alphas have been updated and now feature the same size chart as all our other kimonos. Unfortunately this batch does not include a white belt.
Excellent quality. Clean and subtle look. Also came with a nice carry bag. Highly recommend.
Great gi for training in. I find I don’t get too warm, the gi is lightweight and breathable material whilst still strong enough to take grips. This is a very good gi and I would buy again!
I want to start off by saying this is a good gi. The quality of craftsmanship is great. Good stitching, good construction. The issues I have with it are known trade offs that occur with the materials used, which is on purpose. So I have the Kikko Kimono with the 450gm jacket in addition to this Alpha kimono. There is about a $50SGD difference in price. On retrospect, I would pay the extra $50 as the weight of the jacket’s material makes a larger difference than I would have imagined. I went with the Alpha as it has a much lighter weight jacket and I thought the weight difference in a warm gym would help (it does a bit). However, the lighter weight cotton also stretches quite a bit, which causes your sleeves to bag out and stretch A LOT. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn’t have made that choice and just would have purchased another Kikko gi. In addition, the pants are made of a lighter rip-stop material as well. Just fyi. This is a good light weight gi.
