Mine - Tenho & Kyokuho Fit-stitch Bogu Set
First released in 1996, the Mine Bogu set revolutionized Kendo equipment with its groundbreaking pitch-stitch method, now a standard in the industry. Still acclaimed globally, the Mine is known for its exceptional quality, crafted with precision in Mitsuboshi’s Kuji workshop.
Designed to excel in all settings, the Mine offers unparalleled performance. Its pitch-stitching, developed by Mitsuboshi, provides a supple fit that improves with use, earning a devoted following among Kendo practitioners.
The Mine prioritizes protection and comfort over trends or cost. With generous core padding and meticulous craftsmanship, it offers both safety and ease of movement, feeling like a natural extension of your body.
Over two decades later, the Mine remains a top choice for Kendoka, known for its durability and reliability. It’s a solid investment for every Keiko, Shiai, and Shinsa.
