The premium quality Hakama from Miyabi, is a model specially developed to fulfil the needs of Aikido practitioners. Our most popular Aiki model, the Tetron Aikido Hakama combines a raft of outstanding features with a traditional cut and easy-care fabric.
Features Include:
Upper Fabric - Pure white 700g traditional Sashiko Ori cotton. The Sashiko fabric reaches 20% further down the Gi when compared to most Judo uniforms which gives the Gi a great look especially when worn with a Hakama.
Lower Fabric - Deluxe double layer diamond weave Hishizashi material. Softened Lapel - Filled with a layer of lightweight compressible padding, the lapel is softer and lighter than standard, to maximise comfort during training.
Tailored Aikido Sleeves - The traditionally tailored sleeves are the perfect length to subtly expose the wrists for grabbing attacks and are just the right aperture for comfort and style, whilst reducing the risk of accidental snagging.
Minimised Seams & Reinforcement - With a single seam located at the sides of the Gi, this model eliminates both unnecessary bulky reinforcements and bumpy seams at the back and shoulder, improving comfort during Ukemi and general use.
Reinforced Trousers – The 9oz Zen cotton trousers feature a drawstring waist with a double layer of fabric at the shin and knee, adding protection from friction during kneeling training and increasing longevity.
Shrink to Fit Gi Sizing – Minimal shrinkage of 3~5% is taken account for in the initial cut and our sizing chart. (Gi Only)
Classic Cut Hakama – With a traditional width front panel (Maehaba) and classic pleat depth this Hakama has the classic shape and cut of a traditional model at its core with specialist Aikido features built upon
Extra Long Himo – With most Aikido schools tying the Hakama with an extra half turn around the body compared with other traditional tying methods, extra long Himo are an essential adaptation to more classic cut Hakama. This Hakama features extra long ties for both front and back pairs. Approximate measurements are of the full length of the Himo from one end to the other, including the attached central sections. Front Himo 460cm, Back Himo 230cm.
Flexible Back Plate – A common point of failure on traditional Hakama and a literal sore point with rolling break-falls, hard Koshi Ita are far from ideal for Aikido practice. These models feature a deformable clarino (imitation leather) back plate which is rigid enough to maintain its shape, but which bends harmlessly on impact and moulds around the lower back.
Internally Stitched Pleats – Designed to prevent loss of definition to the internal pleats these vertical line of stitching remain invisible at the front of the Hakama, but reinforce the structure of the Hakama making care and folding quicker and easier.
Extra Himo Stitching – 7 lines of longitudinal stitching run through the length of front and back Himo to facilitate tighter knotting, preventing your Hakama from coming loose during training.
Reinforced Side Seams – A common point of failure and an area prone to being caught by a trailing foot, the side seams of this model feature a subtle reinforcement, strengthening this weak point and adding to the overall durability of the Hakama.
Easy-Care – The Tetron fabric is a specialised mixture of Polyester and Rayon designed for easy cleaning, colour fastness and most importantly to hold its shape and folds. This material makes looking after your Hakama a breeze compared with other natural fabric options.
