This is authentic armor, proudly brought to you by Nishinippon Budougu, a long-established manufacturer in Fukuoka Prefecture.

This is a practical model that is easy to use in matches, with a focus on lightweight and safety.

The armor is made of premium wool felt, special core material, and high-quality domestic cotton, resulting in a special woven stitching texture that exudes a high-quality feel. The chin and hem are made of navy deerskin, allowing you to enjoy the changes that occur over time as the leather fades with use.

The most distinctive feature isThe futon is supple and softIt has a strong texture, which is the opposite of the firm and hard type.

In terms of details, the white thread (arrow feathers) adds a unique design element. (It can be removed if desired.)

In addition, the gloves are made of armor and are covered with navy blue leather, giving them a unique character that is different from other gloves.

Can be used in any situation

Basically, it can be said to be a lightweight, practical type of armor. However, it can be used for all purposes, whether in training or in a match.

I originally kept it at home for matches and training, but it started to show signs of wear, so I now keep it at the dojo and use it for training. I've been using it about twice a week for about three years, and it's worked without any problems or repairs.

The market price is thought to be around 10 to 15 yen, so it is a high-grade machine-stitched protective gear. It is perfectly suitable for the general public to take the examination.

The actual sales situation of BUSHIZO is as follows:It is often purchased by students, mainly middle and high school students. It is useful not only for training but also for matches.I think that's what people find so fascinating about it.

Impressions after actually using it

The photo below shows the condition after 3 years (using 1-2 times a week).

The natural color fading and shape are evident. The lightness and softness of the face futon allows for comfortable movement of the shoulders.

The futon is relatively weak, but still has just the right amount of firmness.

As expected, the chin is made of navy deerskin, so you can see the unique color fading.

When you hold the bamboo sword, you will feel that it is very comfortable to hold.

Of course, it is full-scale armor,The inside of the hand is deerskin.

Parts of the bag are covered with navy blue deerskin, which makes it more resistant to friction.

On the other hand, the downside is that it feels heavy when it absorbs sweat during practice. However, I don't sweat as much during competitions, so this has never bothered me.

The belly band is soft and fits snugly around the waist, allowing for smooth walking.

Rather than simply reducing the amount of core material, the material has a moderate thickness, so the texture can truly be described as "smooth."

The deep color of the indigo dye is really cool.
