The Ryo is made from 100% cotton, but rather than a standard sashiko weave it features a unique pattern that allows the thin fabric to retain strength alongside improving the breathability and lightness.
This uniform is recommended for aikidoka who prefer the feel of natural cotton, but also practice in either hot climates or intense conditions. This is also the perfect choice for summer training as it dries incredibly quickly. This dogi is made in Japan and features an aikido specific cut.
