Shipping Schedule: Ships within 5–8 business days after your order is placed.
Men (Mask)
5mm/2.5mm “Gunome-zashi” stitching for strength and flexibility.
Reinforced top section to absorb impact, with a lightweight duralumin grill.
Comfortable fit and easy movement for daily training.
Designed for long-lasting use and dependable performance.
Kote (Gloves)
Made with navy synthetic leather for a clean, premium appearance and excellent durability.
The inner cut allows for better wrist movement and natural posture.
Brown synthetic leather palms add strength and resistance to sweat and moisture.
Do (Chest Protector)
Designed for durability, impact resistance, and a smooth fit that won’t wear down your uniform.
The elegant navy diagonal stitching with “Hon-KUMO S” cloud pattern adds a refined and balanced look.
The cloud pattern also helps prevent slipping when struck by the shinai.
Tare (Waist Protector)
Inspired by traditional armor, featuring cloud-shaped decorations for an elegant finish.
The stitched square patterns (Gaku-zashi) on the flaps and three cloud ornaments on the belt reduce friction with the Do and enhance style.
Soft and flexible yet durable — easy to tie and wear.

Maintenance Tips
①Dry Properly:
After use, shape the Men and Kote, then air-dry them in a well-ventilated, shaded area. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading and material degradation.
②Avoid Folding Men Flaps:
Let the Men-dare (ear flaps) hang naturally or store them properly to maintain their shape.
③Maintain Kote Shape:
Smooth out the wrinkles in the Tenouchi and reshape the Kote to maintain its original form.
④Wipe Sweat and Oils:
Clean the inner Men padding, especially around the chin area, where sweat accumulates.
If salt or sweat residue appears white on the surface, gently mist with water or wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid rubbing too hard, especially on indigo-dyed areas, as it can cause discoloration.
⑤Soften the Kote Head:
Over time, sweat can harden the glove. Before use, gently knead the Kote to restore softness for a better fit.
●Notes
・Each Kendo equipment brand manufactures its products based on its own unique design philosophy and standards. As a result, even if the size specifications are the same, there may be slight differences in details such as the thickness of the men-shin (helmet padding), the shape of the do (chest protector), or the length of the kote (gloves).
・The Orizashi fabric used in this set is dyed overseas. While it offers a beautiful shade of indigo, please note that there may be subtle differences in tone and texture compared to high-end Japanese-made fabrics.
・Indigo-dyed fabrics may initially transfer color to the skin or clothing. This will gradually fade with continued use.
・The outer fabric is made from 100% cotton and is similar to the thick material used for kendogi (Kendo uniforms). Two main fabric types are commonly used in Kendo armor:
Orizashi: A woven-textured cotton fabric.
Kon-tan: A smoother, tighter-woven fabric, typically used for hakama.
・Due to differences in devices and viewing environments, the color and texture of the product may appear slightly different from the actual item. Thank you for your understanding.
・LET’S KENDO MAX is closed on weekends and public holidays.
Inventory is shared across multiple sales platforms. In rare cases, items may sell out before your order is confirmed.
・Although we always aim to ship your order as quickly as possible, some products may require 5-8 business days for preparation. We appreciate your patience.
・LET’S KENDO MAX does not charge any customs duties, VAT, or handling fees for international orders.
However, depending on your country (especially in European regions), you may be required to pay local taxes or import duties before delivery.
