Why Choose KURENAI?

  • Genuine Shoaizome indigo dye
    Dyed with genuine Shoaizome for a beautiful, traditional appearance and authentic Kendo feel.
  • Lightweight single layer construction
    A practical choice for Kendoka who want a genuine Aizome Kendogi without the heavy feel of thicker traditional options.
  • Soft mesh lining
    The special soft mesh lining gives the Kendogi an extremely soft and comfortable feeling when worn.
  • Quick drying and breathable
    The construction helps sweat evaporate more easily, making the Kendogi cooler, breathable, and quick drying after practice.
  • Excellent for Shiai, grading, and regular Keiko
    KURENAI is a strong choice when you want a traditional appearance with a lighter, more practical feel.

Lightweight Shoaizome Kendogi

The KURENAI Kendogi is made using a special soft mesh lining, which makes it extremely soft and comfortable to wear. It also helps sweat evaporate more easily, meaning the Kendogi dries quickly after practice.

It is perfect for Kendoka looking for a traditional yet light Kendogi for tournaments, grading, or regular training, and is a fantastic alternative to a synthetic Kendogi.

The Kendogi also features a vertical back seam for increased comfort.

What is Included?

This product includes 1 x KURENAI Shoaizome Lightweight Kendogi.

Important Aizome Care Note

Because KURENAI is dyed with genuine Aizome, the colour will bleed. The indigo dye may rub off or stain objects, other clothing, and the wearer’s body. This is a normal and natural feature of genuine Aizome Kendo uniforms.

Please take care when washing. We recommend hand washing separately in cold water, without soap or detergent.

Traditional Look, Lighter Feel

KURENAI is ideal for Kendoka who want the appearance and character of genuine indigo dyed cotton, but prefer a Kendogi that feels lighter and easier to use in regular practice.

Cool and Comfortable

The lightweight single layer construction and soft mesh lining make this Kendogi especially useful for warm Dojo, summer Keiko, seminars, and regular training.

Customer photo review of ‘KURENAI' - Shoaizome Lightweight Kendogi & Cotton Pleat-Lock Kendo Hakama Uniform Set

I just love it, I haven't use it yet but I can't wait to take it to the dojo! The pictures cannot show how beautiful the blue shade is! This is my first shoaizome uniform, so before buying I made a lot of questions to kendostar's support team, and they replied to all of them which gave me more confidence to make my purchase. I absolutely recommend this uniform set!!!!

Customer photo review of ‘KURENAI' - Seiaizome Lightweight Kendogi

Really good product and a decent price. I've now used this gi 3 times and I haven't posted a review until now because I like to see how things are in use before I do a review. It fits really well, is extremely comfortable and is brilliant for repeated practices. It really doesn't feel like a lined gi at all because it's so lightweight. I will buy another one soon so I have two for the summer.

Customer photo review of ‘KURENAI' - Seiaizome Lightweight Kendogi

These dogi are great! They’re lightweight and comfortable and look absolutely stunning. They don’t fade to purple and they keep a great colour.

Customer photo review of ‘KURENAI' - Seiaizome Lightweight Kendogi & Cotton Pleat-Lock Kendo Hakama Uniform Set

As usual the service provided was second to none! I had a specific request for embroidery, and a minor issue with website exchange rates and pricing, but once again all I needed to do was make direct contact, and all my problems were quickly sorted. Hakama and kendogi arrived very promptly and exactly as I had requested. The quality is perfectly as described and perhaps even more impressive in the flesh. Andy and his team really are providing a thoroughly customer-centric service that is hard to beat in any industry I’ve dealt with. Another fantastic kendo shopping experience with Kendo Star - thanks again team! Brett Smith - Melbourne, Australia.

‘KURENAI' - Seiaizome Lightweight Kendogi & Cotton Pleat-Lock Kendo Hakama Uniform Set

Very happy with this Kendogi. Lightweight but still feels good quality. The real deal Aizome too when you use this or wash it so you get the good ol’ Smurf look! As for the durability, it keeps up really good, the Aizome doesn’t fade quickly as some cheaper ones could. The Himo don’t fade as quick either. In my experience it dries very quickly even if the Keiko was super intense; any ripe smell just seems to go away unlike some Kendogi’s that do hold onto it. If you’re on the fence about this, don’t be. It’s a very good balance between affordable and ultra premium even if it’s for a Shinsa or special occasion, you won’t be sorry.

‘KURENAI' - Shoaizome Lightweight Kendogi

I am 185, I have had uniforms from other brands and the sizing on kendostar is on the longer side compared to what I have. For example my current old uniform is size 5, the kurenai keikogi is much longer nearing the knees and the sleeves cover partially my kote, and I ordered a 4L, so I assume most people my height should order the regular 4. My old hakama is size 28, so I ordered the same 28 - too long by about 6-10 cm. The hakama himo from the koshita seem to be short for my taste, all my other hakamas can reach the back of my hips after being tied in the front, so I will have to extend them. The sizing chart is maybe not very clear what part is how long because I clearly remember measuring myself and thinking it will be ok. Having said that, I did the purchase like this on purpose - longer clothing can be shortened with a trip to the tailor. As far as quality my older gi and hakama seem to be of similar quality and they costed about $150 10 years ago. Inflation.

‘KURENAI' - Shoaizome Lightweight Kendogi & Cotton Pleat-Lock Kendo Hakama Uniform Set

These uniforms are top notch. We received two with embroidery on the hakama as a wedding gift and we couldn't be happier. The top is super comfortable due to the mesh lining and doesn't chafe even on first use. It also dries super fast and takes quite a bit of practice before it starts to smell and needs washing. The hakama are nice and thick, and holds its pleats beautifully. The embroidery is also beautiful and the process of getting the custom make was quick and easy. All in all another wonderful product from kendostar.

'KURENAI' Seiaizome Cotton Pleat-Lock Kendo Hakama

I ordered a custom tailored hakama to ensure a correct fit on my wide hips. It sits perfectly and the embroidered name is bright and clear. Superb customer service as well, Ezgi was very helpful during the order process and patiently answered about a dozen of questions. I am really pleased with the final product.

already have two of them and i love them. highly recommended. they are not super lightweight but the breath super well. Good for training, grading, shiai. all you need!

‘KURENAI' - Seiaizome Lightweight Kendogi

Very nice hakama. I especially like the reinforced pleats so that the folding is very easy and it immediately takes the correct shape (most likely also due to it being very new).
