Kyoto-Pro Defender Men Specifications

Extra-Protective Men-Buton – the Men pad is constructed from multiple protective layers, with a dual layer of selected natural felts at its core. Those layers of differential density have been carefully selected and tested to best balance weight, density and impact management. Additional layers of padding material are integrated across the primary target area, increasing protection and overall thickness in this “high traffic” zone.

Shock Absorbent Pitch Stitch – 6mm longitudinal bands of stitching are applied with Pitch-Zashi 4mm long stitches through the Futon, reducing compression of the Men padding and increasing the absorption of shock at the point of impact.

Diagonal Men-Dare Stitch – the Naname-Zashi (diagonal stitch) element applied on the Men-Dare allows the Men to sit correctly from the outset of use, preventing interference with head posture and overcoming traditional “breaking in” periods.

Duralumin Men-Gane – the Men grille is an industry standard component with a tough light-weight alloy construction.

Crossed Kazari Ito Ago – classic crossed braid design on an embossed man-made leather field decorates the Tsuki-Dare (also known as Ago), giving a tough, timeless finish.

Shirurido Microfibre Uchiwa – the ultimate in both comfort and sweat management, the internal band which surrounds and contacts the face offers the best solution for quality and comfort of fit.
