Tozando Premium HIKARI Tezashi 1.5 Bu Deerskin Kote

Experience the perfect blend of tradition and craftsmanship with our meticulously handcrafted Kote, designed for Kendo enthusiasts who appreciate authentic Japanese armor. Each piece is skillfully made in Japan, reflecting the dedication and skill of our master artisans.

Features:

• Kotebuton Craftsmanship: Our Kotebuton is constructed using the traditional 1.5 bu (approximately 4.5 mm) stitching technique. This tightly woven pattern ensures durability while providing flexibility and comfort. The artisanal approach guarantees each set is unique, offering superior protection and longevity.
• Kote-atama Padding: The head of the gloves, or Kote-atama, is generously padded to absorb and dissipate impacts effectively during training and competition. This strategic padding shields the knuckles and the back of the hand from strikes, enhancing both safety and comfort.
• Indigo-Dyed Deer Leather Reinforcements: Reinforcing the Kote-atama, the indigo-dyed deer leather not only offers additional protection but also adds a striking aesthetic with its deep, rich blue hue. The use of natural indigo dye ensures that each pair of Kote has a unique color shade that grows more vibrant with use.
• Smoked Deer Leather Palm: The palms are crafted from premium smoked deer leather, known for its softness and exceptional durability. This leather provides a comfortable grip on the shinai, allowing for precise control and maneuverability. The smoking process enhances the leather’s resistance to wear and tear, ensuring it lasts through rigorous training sessions.

Additional Benefits:

• Artisanal Quality: Each pair of Kote is a testament to Japanese craftsmanship, made by artisans who have honed their skills over generations.
• Custom Fit and Finish: Attention to detail ensures a perfect fit, minimizing discomfort and maximizing performance.
• Aesthetic Appeal: The elegant indigo-dyed leather combined with the traditional design makes these Kote a visually stunning addition to your Kendo gear.
