About Bogushop
A passion for kendo. An appreciation for its equipment. A belief that quality gear should be within reach.
Our story
Quality without the high price.
Incorporated in 2007, Bogushop has been supplying quality kendo equipment to kendoka, clubs and associations around the world ever since.
We understand the cost of practicing this traditional Japanese martial art. Our vision is to make high-quality equipment more affordable, so more people can enjoy kendo.
We work directly with manufacturers, reducing middleman costs and passing those savings on to our customers. Accessible prices should not mean compromising on quality.
Our customers span Canada, the United States, France, Italy, Spain, England, Sweden, Switzerland, Singapore, Indonesia, China, South Africa, Argentina and beyond.
Online & in person
Part of the local community.
Our business began by serving customers primarily online. As Canada's kendo community grew, we opened our retail location in Richmond, British Columbia, to better serve local clubs and kendoka in the Vancouver area.
Whether you shop online or visit us in person, our goal remains the same: to help more people enjoy kendo with quality, affordable equipment.
Buying for your club?
We offer bulk-quantity and club-buy discounts, with discounts depending on quantity. Contact us to discuss your group's needs and learn more.
Around the Pacific Northwest
See you at the tournament.
With our retail location in Richmond, BC, we try to attend as many tournaments in the Pacific Northwest as we can.
When we attend, you can pick up the equipment you need there. For competitors traveling from farther away, it is an opportunity to shop in person without paying shipping costs.
The passion behind Bogushop
A kendoka's perspective.
I have practiced with Steveston Kendo Club for many years. Over that time, I developed a passion for kendo and the philosophy behind it.
Kendo offers a lifelong learning experience: an opportunity to develop not only technique, but also character and virtue.
I also appreciate the beauty of kendo equipment—the selection of materials, the detail in the design and the care taken in how it is worn.
That appreciation is why I want every kendoka to have the opportunity to enjoy kendo with superb-quality equipment at an affordable price.
