About this tool
We have prepared a 3-piece judo uniform set—including jacket, pants, and white belt—for use in junior high school physical education classes. These are manufactured by KUSAKURA, a martial arts uniform maker that has been in business since 1918.
We are offering this at a special limited price until November 30th.
Set Contents
- Judo Gi Jacket (KUSAKURA Shoshin II JNW2)
- Judo Gi Pants
- White Belt
Material: 65% Polyester, 35% Cotton / Color: White
How to Choose a Size
The height range for each size designated by the manufacturer is as follows:
| Size | Height Range |
|---|---|
| 1 | 136–147cm |
| 2 | 148–157cm |
| 3 | 158–167cm | 4 | 168–177cm | 5 | 178–185cm |
Judo classes continue for three years, from the first year of junior high through the autumn of the third year. Since students are in the middle of their growth spurts, we recommend choosing a size that accounts for future growth: current height + 10–15cm for boys, and + 5–10cm for girls.
For example, for a boy who is 155cm tall, a size 3, which corresponds to 165–170cm, is a good guideline.
If you are unsure about the size, you can come to our store for a fitting. Everyone has a different physique and timing for their growth spurts. If you are hesitant, please feel free to visit us.
Difference from 100% Cotton
Because these are made with a polyester blend, they offer the following advantages over traditional 100% cotton judo uniforms:
- Better sweat evaporation
- Lightweight and easy to carry
- Folds thin so it doesn't take up space in your bag
- Dries quickly after washing (can be dried indoors)
- Resistant to shrinking after washing
They are easy to care for even during periods with consecutive classes, and they are more affordable than 100% cotton versions.
Shipping
Orders will be shipped sequentially starting September 20th. Since most schools begin judo classes in October, we can ensure they reach you with time to spare.
Size Exchanges
We will exchange items if they are unused. Every year, we receive consultations from parents who find that their child had a sudden growth spurt after purchasing. Please do not hesitate to let us know.
