I want to talk about IBB Men Gane (Grill). IBB Men Gane have always been marketed as a high end product that is often associated with tight stitching Bogu (2mm) or expensive hand-stitched products. They are sold with expensive sets for a reason. The weight distribution of the Gane is higher up on the MEN, which prevents Kendoka from lowering their head and vision from the opponents due to heavy MEN. Please see here, the weight is distributed toward the top of the MEN instead of the lower part of the MEN. IBB also has better impact absorbtion than traditional Duralumin and Titanium Gane.
