These guys are very good to deal with:

http://www.kachi-do.com/karate-equipment-c-259.html the regular student one would do for training.

I had a regular wacoku, adidas, and blitz suits. All were fine.

Personally Id go for the regular ones unless you do a fair bit of grabbing etc in bunkai or pairs work. In that case maybe go for a heavyweight one.

cheers mate will look em up now. not too much grabbing at the standard im at its all kihon blocks and punches. maybe in a few belts time.

In that case the standard student suit would be ideal. Best of luck with training.
