How to measure your armor (men, kote, do, tare) size
One of the most important things to consider when purchasing kendo gear is size.
Having the correct size armor is the first step in kendo training.
By sending us your exact size, we can deliver the perfect protective gear to you.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
Prepare a sewing tape measure.
Rulers, string, and metal tape measures may not measure accurately.
Always make sure that at least two people take the measurement.

To order a mask, you will need the following three sizes: A, B, and C.
First, keep your mouth closed and your head straight.
This time, we will measure a woman who is 168 cm tall and has a normal build.
This is the vertical size of the face. Measure from the top of the head (around the whorl) to the tip of the chin.
- Place the tape measure at the crown of your head (have someone hold it in place).
- Bring the tape measure around your chin, in front of your ears, and back around to your cheeks.
Bad example
The horizontal size of the face. Imagine the position of a headband.
It is sized to go from just above the ears to the forehead and back of the head.
Guideline: Most people fit within AB=10cm±1cm

Place your head straight on a table or other surface with your chin resting and measure the vertical height to the corner of your eye.
Measuring with a ruler is more accurate.
Guideline: Most people fit within AB=10cm±1cm
Points to note
- Make sure the tape measure is neither too tight nor too loose.
- Please measure when the device is tightly fitted to your face or head without any gaps.
- Make sure to measure while checking that the tape measure is going in the correct direction.
- A is usually 58cm (children) to 72cm (adults). If it is 73cm or more, we may not be able to provide some protective gear, so please contact us.
- B is usually around 57cm for an adult male.
- C is usually around 12.5cm for an adult male.
- The female model's sizes are A: 65.5cm, B: 55cm, C: 10.8cm.
About your child's growth and development
Children grow quickly, so many customers prefer to buy larger sizes.
In that case, we recommend purchasing a face cushion.
A face cushion is something that is placed under the face and can be adjusted to any size.
It also absorbs the impact when hit, making it ideal for children who find it painful to be hit on the face.
If you are considering using a surface cushion, please write this in the comments section.
To order Kote, you will need the following sizes D and E.
Measure the size of your palm.
Keep your fingers together and straight, and your hands relaxed.
Measure a straight line from your fingertips to the knuckle crease just below your palm.

Measure the circumference from the base of your thumb and index finger.

The size of the torso and tare will be determined based on the height, weight, and waist measurements you provide.
