@@myboyt I agree Kataaro are fantastic, but the actual competitors would be brands like Eosin Panther, Tōkaido, Shureido, Hirota, Satori, etc. Brands that do custom made, embroidered belts. :)
@@mattsmartialartsmadness5285 💯. I looked into all the reviews etc. Kataaro was in the same state an hour from my house. So that’s where I went. Not to mention the customer service and the free rank strips for life. No more buying new belts per promotion. 😁
@@myboyt I didn’t know they had a free stripe service. That sounds nice. I used to be required to wear rank stripes, but now I don’t have to. Back then we just used white medical tape, lol.
Thx u for the video, I’m looking for a New Black belt , this site seems to be only site i can find a size 9. Pls let me know the color of the embroidery on the lack belt your showing
To start. Yes. But it will break in just like the others. The make a grappling weave. It’s like the same build as your GI. It stays tied way better out of the box.
Walter's Reviews did you get the stiff or soft ? Think that would play into it. I thought about the grapplers weave but I wish for my belt to fade eventually
The stiff is not as wide as the black ones I have for other martial arts. So it does stay tied a little better. But it does come undone a few times during class. Not really while rolling but more standing up in warmups lol!
