Taekwondo Uniforms

With TKD Uniforms lighter is better.  Unlike karate where the heavier uniforms are more popular, the more athletic nature of taekwondo make this art for physically demanding, thus the need to minimize wieght.  Where karate emphasizes power, Taekwondo emphasizes speed, so lighter is better.  All the power and sound you need comes from the legs, so reduce the fabric, pile on the  speed.
