Great fit and feel.
Stood up to iaido and kendo practice from 3-7 with no problems, and still folded up super neat and easy!

I ordered a Kachi hakama that unfortunately had issues with the stitching (see my review placed on the 23rd of October), but Fisher sensei immediately reached out to replace it. The replacement (including embroidery) was arranged by the KS support team the next day, and arrived a few days later. As I said before, this truly is a fantastic and very comfortable hakama, but the quality and speed of the KS support service might even be more impressive!

This truly is a light, nicely shaped and easy to fold hakama that holds its shape really well. Unfortunately, the upper half of a stitch on the center back pleat (the outside crease of the left inner pleat that is tucked away under the right center pleat) was completely undone when the hakama arrived. Since the hakama has embroidery (which is beautifully done) I won't be returning it, but having an undone stitch on a new pleat lock hakama is sort of a bummer.

Now worn this hakama to two practices and I absolutely love it. Crisp lines, light as a feather, and the color is perfect. Definitely a great practice hakama for beginners and experienced kendoka alike!

Quick and reliable
Thank you Andy and the team

Great everyday hakama
This hakama goes well with the polyester kendogi. Don't have to worry about losing the shape of the hakama. Don't have to worry about washing your hakama in your washer/dryer. Don't need to worry about your hakama color fading with each wash.

Lovely hakama
This hakama is amazing - very comfortable and easy to maintain (washing and folding is no problem at all). When I wear it I always look nice and neat, even during intensive keiko. Great product!

Fantastic hakama
I have been a fan of light weight hakama for some time for everyday practice for the quick drying benefits and they are easy to look after. The Kachi is a great hakama it looks and feels great during practice. Some synthetic hakama I've tried tend to built up static during practice, thankfully the Kachi does not do this. I would 100% recommended this hakama and as always great service and very quick delivery from Kendostar .

Good Hakama
Outstanding Hakama. Inner and outer pleat stitching ensures a clean look and makes it easy foldable as promised. It is lightweight and comfortable.

Top Notch Product and Swift Delivery
The material is great, light yet sturdy. The stitch is of high quality and the pleat lock really helps preserve the look of the hakama effortlessly. Even when I've been lazy and not followed correct folding procedure, the hakama retains it's form with barley a crease to mention. This is a must have hakama if you are slightly wide in the hips / tall as there is room for alterations. Trust me guys... I know you can get cheap versions online, but you WILL NOT REGRET spending the extra money ( and considering the difference in quality, it doesn't really feel like extra, just like getting more than you paid for and an item that will last years ).

I like these a lot !
Easy to care for Hakama, lightweight and very good for summer training sessions, stitched pleats really help too! Easy to wash, take less than an hour to dry on a warm day. Excellent quality and brilliant service !

Leery at First, but it Won me Over
I was somewhat leery of the material at first, seeing as it is shiny, stretchy, and very different from my cotton hakama at first blush!
However, after a couple practices, I'm loving how the material is so light-weight. As someone who overheats a lot, I'm always looking to find the lightest gi and hakama, and so far, this is the best I've found if you're looking to shed extra heat.
It also helps that it is easy to care for and the stitching will keep the pleats looking nice and sharp. So, while I was skeptical at first, the Kachi hakama ultimately won me over.

Nice looking practical hakama
The stitched pleats and the material make it the perfect hakama for every day plactice. I dont use cotton anymore. It looks so nice that I am even thinking about wearing it in shiai...
The sititching in some parts is not perfectly done, thats why i odnt give it a 5 stars
Marino Frana
Nice and practical
The set is really nice and practical, main selling point for me was easy washing. The downside is it is thin, so it doesn't really help with missed strikes.
Worth a buy, but will pick something thicker next time.
Alex
Amazing quiality
Confortable, light and good looking. The stitched pleats make it perfect for a workhorse hakama.
Vadim
My first hakama!
Great colored nice looking hakama. Very light! Super fast delivery.
Joni
Very nice.... but
Color is great for a synthetic hakama, folding is really easy with the pleatlock system. Only downside was the size, i'm wider than an average person, so it won't sit as tidy as it would on a slimmer person.

Light!
They need to put pleats on all hakama! Makes folding a breeze and can wash it as much as you want without any bleeding issues!
Chris
very nice hakama!
This hakama is very nice! especially its very light feeling makes it a real pleasure to train with. A very nice feature is the additional seams at the pleats positions, i'm shure it will keep everything nicely sorted out in the longer term. Delivery was super fast.
