    Adidas gi's are junk according to one survey I've seen online, least popular Gi as rated by owners. I'm pretty sure I saw an adidas gi rip in competition once as well , maybe blitz though, can't remember for sure.

    It's a manufacturer conspiracy. All of the material is from hardcore sweatshops. Therefore, the sweat was already pre-installed. It has to shrink in ordr to go out and buy more. :)
