The latest addition to the VANGUARD series of Bogu sets!

VANGUARD SENTINEL is a brand-new style of Bogu designed to fit perfectly into the VANGUARD family. It embodies the series philosophy—protective, stylish, and durable—while carrying its own identity.

Inspired by popular Keishi-gata designs used by top police Kendoka in Japan. Strike zones use extra-wide stitching for exceptional protection, and innovative double-Gunome stitching on the Mendare and Tare delivers superior durability and a standout appearance.

Protective 12 mm strike zones Double-Gunome Mendare/Tare IBB Duralumin Mengane Genuine Aizome deerskin & Orizashi Combination
Aizome Deerskin Reinforcement. Highest-grade, genuine Aizome deerskin looks beautiful and wears tough. Due to natural dye, colour transfer (blue) may occur initially and will fade with use.
Made to Order (Approx. 12–16 weeks). SENTINEL is crafted to your specifications by expert artisans using the best materials available. Timelines are estimates—sometimes a little longer, sometimes less—but always worth the wait.
*MADE TO ORDER* — You can be confident of a perfect fit. Production usually takes ~12–16 weeks.
