I believe that there's a person in Northern California (Ukiah?) who makes dogi out of hemp. If I remember correctly, she has an advertisement in the back of Aikido Today Magazine...
They just came out with a jiu jitsu gi made out of hemp, the weight seems perfect for Aikido. I was thinking of getting one for Judo practice since it breathes better than cotton and resists odors.
the woman who makes WONDERFUL hemp gi -- i've met her and have trained w/ her daughter who wears them--is Machiko and if you click on links to related prior threads you find this http://www.aikiweb.com/forums/showth...?t=6627&page=2
