Our school’s color is black and the following are examples of items that are acceptable to students in our school.
 



We use a black Shuai Chiao jacket (Yi):
https://www.webmartial.com/en/martial-arts/shuai-jiao/black-thick-cotton-shuai-jiao-wrestling-jacket.html
In this website you can request the vendor to exclude the holes for the belt.





For Chang Chuan we use jackets like this one:

When we work with No-Yi grappling, my recommendation is to wear a short sleeve rash guard such as this one:

​


 
All black Shuai Chiao shoes or boots (Xie).  For overall fighting, I recommend shoes that cover your heel to prevent injuries such as these:

Or these:

For wrestling shoes you should ORDER A SIZE AND A HALF UP.




Shuai Chiao and Chang Chuan, pants (Kuzi) without embroidery.  With or without cuffs.  I personally prefer with elastic cuffs in order to prevent the pants from rolling up during kicking, make sure you ORDER A SIZE UP:
