Description
This release was a special collaboration for Ryan Hall's Fifty/50 academy. The batch name, "Wizard," is a reference to the wizard Gandalf in J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy novels, most notably The Lord Of The Rings. The inside of the gi jacket, the tape sewn into the jacket and pants, and the gi bag are all inscribed with the following quote:
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."
This quote never appears in Tolkien's novels; it comes from Peter Jackson's film adaptation of The Fellowship Of The Ring.
