I think there are many people who find it inconvenient that there are no kendo equipment stores nearby.

In the past, armor vendors would come to do business at dojos, but now they are staying away due to business cutbacks caused by a decline in the number of kendo practitioners.

The number of people purchasing kendo equipment online is increasing dramatically.

We have compiled a list of online shopping sites that we think are useful, including sites operated by our company, and we hope you will find it useful.

Introduction

As a general rule, if you take your own body measurements and send them to us through the online shopping site, the business will select the appropriate size product for you.

In addition, companies are making efforts to improve their services, such as allowing for size adjustments and returns/exchanges if the size does not fit.

Generally, all online shopping sites offer free shipping for orders over a certain amount, so unless you're in a hurry, it's convenient because you can reduce the inconvenience and costs by not going to a physical store.

What I recommend

If you have any questions, please contact us first. It will take time to research on your own or ask people around you.

Also, if you are in a hurry, it is important to clearly communicate when you need it by. Please note that name embroidery and name tag production usually take time to deliver.
