Product Information & Size Chart

  • Judogi Taisho - White - Jacket

    The Judogi JOV is KuSakura's latest model. This Judogi is made for international competitors and is approved by the International Judo Federation.

    The Taisho models, also known as the JNV (blue) and JOV (white) Judogi are the latest models developed by KuSakura. After years of experience with cotton/polyester fabrics that can meet the new standards of the IJF (2022), the KuSakura R&D department came out with an even more resistant and even slightly heavier fabric, heavier than the famous masterpiece JOF. It allowed for the development of those two new models. As required by the IJF, it weighs is slightly over 750 g/m², while maintaining a tensile strength greater than 2200 Newtons.

    The jacket is designed from double layered Sashiko (rice grain weave) on the upper part and Hishisashi (diamond weave) on the lower part.

    It is called Taisho, which is also the name of the main competitor of a team in a Judo tournament. The greatest hope of the team, the one who holds the keys to victory in his hands. Because this Judogi is designed for international competitions, it can be used in all competitions at any level. Note that the polyester fiber allows quick drying and compact folding, which is also particularly useful for practitioners traveling a lot.

    Those are undoubtedly and by far, the best Judogi available on the market. This model is also available in blue color.

    This product consists of a jacket only. The JOV Judogi pants are available separately for purchase.

    Judogi technical specifications

    • Fabric: cotton/polyester blend
    • Double layer
    • Material weight: approx. 750 g/m² (Heavyweight)
    • Weight (size 5): approx. 1.8 kg
    • Color: white (official IJF)
    • Sanforized - Pre-shrunk
      - Shrinkage: approx. 5% (already included in the size calculation)
    • Red KuSakura logo (with a double gold border) on the left sleeve.
    • Availability:
      - Standard sizes and most extended sizes are available in about 1 week to 10 days.
      - Some extended sizes being made to order, the production time is of 3 to 4 weeks.
      - The shipping date estimation will update automatically upon size selection.
    • Made in Japan

    Choosing your size

    With over a hundred sizes, made in Japan KuSakura Judogi have the largest size choice on the market. Because the size table is quite long and complicated, we have made available a size calculator.

    If you already know your size, you can click on "I Know My Size", and then just type the size.
    If you do not know your size, click on "I don't know my size" to display our automated size calculator.

    1. Select your height.
    2. Select your weight.
    3. Select your arm's length.
      Click the "?" button on the right of the option if you have a doubt about how to measure.

    If you have an unusual body type (very dense muscles, large chest, or large waist), we recommend measuring your waist and chest circumference and checking with the value displayed with the weight in the selector.
    The detailed size table, on which the Judogi size calculator is based, is available via the "How to Choose your Judogi" tab above, or directly on the "How to Choose your Judogi & Judogi Size Chart" page.

    Excellent

    Tout simplement parfait. C’est mon deuxième judogi Kusakura, je ne jure désormais plus que par cette marque.

    La qualité est excellente, le confort inégalé et l’esthétique à couper le souffle.

    Quant au service après-vente, il est tout simplement exceptionnel. On a affaire à des judokas passionnés plus qu’à des commerciaux.

    Je recommande vivement.

    Good and Comfortable Gi

    Bought the gi jacket for my teenage daughter. We followed the guidelines on the website allowing a little more room for growth. The gi arrived quickly and fits well.

    Besides the good quality, the gi is light and feels very comfortable. Waiting to try it out in trainings and competitions!

    Does not fit

    The gi was good quality, hence I gave it more than one star. The issue was with the sizing chart. I ended with an expensive gi that does not fit. Since I already washed the gi (as per advice on the website), Kusakura refused to exchange it. Instead, they offered a small discount to buy another one. After my initial experience with Kusakura support, I am reluctant to risk more money for another purchase.

    Thank you for your comment.
    All our products go through a quality control. Each measure is verified and a sample from the same batch of fabric is washed to control the shrinkage.
    Since KuSakuraShop opened, our size calculator has been 100% accurate, and each time a product didn't fit, it was because of how the customer measured his body.
    In your email, you confirmed that you washed the product, so a return was not possible, as per our conditions, and as per the conditions of any high quality clothing shop.
    We did not offer a 'small discount', we offered a 20% discount, which is a big discount for made in Japan products with a margin far smaller than made in Pakistan/China products, and we offered it right away.
    We also offered you to send us pictures of you wearing the Dogi so we could work together to find were the problem was and find the right size for you.
    You have not answered this last email.
    If your point in this comment is to say that it doesn't matter if the mistake comes from the shop or the customer and the seller should offer a free product 'no question asked', you have indeed knocked the wrong door.
    KuSakuraShop refuses to increase its prices to secure enough margin in order to offer such unreasonable solutions. We focus on offering a very accurate service, flowless products and an extremely fast an efficient customer support, for very reasonable prices, with a work ethic that is the opposite of major actors such as the very unreasonable 'no question asked' Amazon policy.

    Magnifique

    Un seul mot: FONCEZ.

    Après une reprise du Judo suite à un arrêt de 15 ans, j'ai toujours été habitué à une autre marque de Judogi ( connue et compétition ). Je connaissais KuSakura de nom seulement.

    Top qualité, ultra léger par apport aux autres marques, c'est comme enfilé un chausson. L'intérieur est doux, le kim est souple ( col dur ) et robuste. La broderie demandée est parfaite tant sur la veste que le pantalon du même modèle.

    Depuis le temps je n'étais pas tout à fait certain des tailles. Le SAV est d'une efficacité et d'une gentillesse ( mention à Gaetan )... Si seulement les entreprises Suisses prenaient exemple...

    Absolument rien à redire, je recommanderai le prochain kim en bleu et recommanderai KuSakura aux pratiquants désireux d'avoir un vrai matériel.

    For compliance reasons, reviews placed in French and Japanese and imported here on April 2024 do not display as 'verified'.
