Gi Maintenance

*Warning* Appearances can seriously harm your Gi
Several weeks ago the right leg of my Gi trousers started to develop a hole. At first I put it down to the 'robust' techniques applied during the training session. A quick repair job was made and I hoped it would hold up - but no. Each week it got progressively worse and for no apparent reason. After some digging I found the culprit, it was my proud wife. Several weeks ago she found a yellow stain on the trousers and diligently went about removing the stain with bleach. It seems neat bleach and cotton are not happy partners. I recommend putting up with the stain and save yourself the cost of new trousers.
