Fast dry and good value
Perfect for summer training. The whole set dries within 10 minutes even in humid weather. And despite being so light, it hasn’t worn down at all after a year of use. Highly recommend

Just started Kendo and this was my first set. Couldn’t be happier. It fits great, feels amazing, and I don’t have to stress about folding the hakama perfectly because the pleats stay in place. Worth every dollar.
This set is a game-changer for summer keiko. The jersey gi dries so fast I can wear it home after practice without feeling soaked. The hakama’s pleats hold up amazingly well, even after multiple washes. Highly recommended for anyone training regularly.
Light, durable, and stylish. This is my go-to uniform for daily practice. I was skeptical about synthetic materials at first, but it genuinely feels better than some of my cotton sets—and it dries much faster!
I live in the caribean and this set was an exelent purchase is very light and confortable specialy for a country that all year around is summer and the humidity is hight another good thing is that it dries very fast, the shinai is good quality for practice and the bag for shinai good quality too.
Vivo en el caribe y este set fue una excelente compra, es muy liviano y cómodo especialmente para un paÃs que todo el año es verano y la humedad es alta. Otra cosa buena es que se seca muy rápido, el shinai es de buena calidad para practicar y La bolsa para shinai también es de buena calidad.
It work like a charm on my do fully recomended
The shinai have good balance with its dobari style exelent for any strike Men,Kote,Do and Tsuki, have a thicker grip than regular oval shinai is good for bigger hands, i heavely recomend to buy with its tsuba included because it is a little width than the regular tsuba.
El shinai tiene buen equilibrio con su estilo dobari excelente para cualquier golpe Men, Kote, Do y Tsuki, tiene un agarre más grueso que el shinai ovalado normal es bueno para manos más grandes, recomiendo comprarlo con su tsuba incluido porque es un poco ancho que la tsuba normal.
I commissioned a custom made Do by Bogu shop in this exact style but a gold coloured crescent moon addition.
Lynn's customers service is amazing. I was provided pictures throughout the process and Lynn made sure to confirm with me throughout to make sure it was going to plan.
When I opened the package I was floored by the quality of this custom Do. Please view it on their Instagram. It's absolutely stellar.
The amour shipped far faster then I was expecting and is quite comfortable to wear and sold for a quite reasonable price. the sizing chart could be a little more clear but the armour seems to fit well.
Placed a group order and was pleasantly surprised to find my #8000 hakama were upgraded to #10000 as a thabk you gift! Did wash in warm water and vinegar prior to first wear to set the dye and still see some rub off, but that's indigo dye for ya. It does show some fading in high friction areas such as the knees, also to be expected.
I have 2 of these hakama now. They hold their shape extremely well. I honestly now will not wear a hakama that does not have permanent pleats.
You look impeccable in these hakama and stand out in a crowd in a properly put together sense.
Bogushop is my go to for all things kendo now. The prices are very reasonable and is 1 of many reasons I keep coming back. Lynn's customer service is amazing and feel supported the entire time through purchasing.
The cost of this shinai is extremely reasonable. The Koban grip is amazing and I really do love this shinai. Because of this, I will be buying another soon.
I do all my kendo shopping with Bogu Shop because Lynn has always been amazing to deal with, the quality is amazing and the price is extremely fair.
