Uniforms, known as Gi's, bare significance in Zen Do Kai, we outline the differences here.

Today all coloured belt ranks generally wear a navy blue or black Gi (uniform) with red or white pieces above the Bicep area and along the full extent of the collar line and their coloured belt. Under special circumstances some coloured belt students are awarded the privilege of wearing the Black Gi with their coloured belt (generally only awarded at Brown Belt level).

Probationary First Degree - Black Belt, Black Gi.

1st Degree - Black Belt, Black Gi with Red Collar.
