ya know, over the years I've found that judo gi (for me at least) tend to wear out about as quickly as so-called "karate gi" (assuming you're buying decent quality of both -- I've had cheap gi of both type that fall apart quickly).
Compared to the karate heavyweight gis that you're probably thinking of, the typical taekwondo dobok is pretty flimsy IME. Also, this is what a typical dobok looks like, with a v-neck rather than open down the front.
