In response to a demand in Japan for reasonably priced, high-quality bogu possessing the same features as expensive hand-made equipment, the renowned Japanese martial arts equipment maker Chiba Budougu Ltd. developed a new generation of bogu, the Mine(pronounced me-ney, meaning “Mountain Peak,”). By using a special machine sewing process, and a six millimeter pitch sewing pattern identical to the stitch-width of 2-bu tezashi, or #2 hand stitched cushion, we can offer the ideal balance of comfort and protection found in handmade bogu, but at a fraction of the price!
In addition, all orders are made for each specific customer (including special sizing for women practitioners) so you get that perfect fit, as well as a multitude of choices to customize your set of armor. We also provide a guarantee that if any portion of the bogu set is found to be defective due to materials or workmanship, that piece will be replaced at no charge.
This bogu immediately became popular in Japan following its introduction, and can be seen in use by many college students, school and university kendo teachers, and policemen, all who require comfortable, durable kendo equipment for daily use. Read more about our products here 
All kendo equipment offered by Chiba Budougu are custom-made to customer specifications. Orders normally require from six to 10 weeks to produce, but may require more time in special cases. Full payment for goods, and shipping and handling are required at time of order. |
