Introducing our Ultimate Prestige MADE IN JAPAN Bogu Set - KOUTEN. As part of the esteemed KendoStar HI NO MARU Series Hand-Sewn Bogu Sets, the KOUTEN Bogu Set epitomizes premium craftsmanship, delivering unmatched comfort, protection, and durability.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the KOUTEN Bogu Set boasts pinnacle-grade genuine Japanese Aizome deerskin reinforcement throughout. Not only does this lend an exquisite aesthetic, but it also ensures exceptional durability and longevity.
The Futon of the set is intricately hand-sewn, drawing inspiration from the revered design of our popular VANGUARD SENTINEL model. Featuring 12mm wide stitching in the strike zones, the Bogu set provides exceptional protection and cushioning. Moreover, our original 'double-Gunome' pattern 3mm stitching is strategically incorporated in areas requiring enhanced shaping and durability.
Additionally, the Kote palms of the KOUTEN Bogu Set are meticulously crafted from bleached premium Japanese Kotou Deerskin as standard, further enhancing its exquisite quality and performance.
In the context of the HI NO MARU Series, 'hand-sewn' signifies a meticulous process where each stitch is meticulously applied by skilled craftsmen without the use of mechanical guides. Carefully adjusting the thread tension, they masterfully control the thickness and texture of the Futon, ensuring superior craftsmanship and durability with every Bogu set.
The KOUTEN Bogu Set stands as a testament to its unique stitching method, employment of prestige materials, and unrivaled craftsmanship, making it the epitome of elegance for advanced Kendoka seeking the pinnacle of premium Japanese craftsmanship.
