🥋 Essential Judo Gear for the New Season🥋

Here’s what every judoka needs—and what coaches should stock or recommend:

1. Judogi

The foundation of every judoka’s kit. Ensure your students wear durable, comfortable judogis that suit their level. For beginners, a light weight single-weave cotton judogi like our 1^st Judogi would be perfect. Or are you looking for something more traditional? our Hajime judogis- distinctive with their ‘Rice Grain’ weave,provides quality and a greater rigidity and resistance.
Alternately, for those who want to go for the stylish option, have a look at our Red Label judogis - available in black, white, blue and pink!

🛒 Fighting Films offers high-quality judogis designed for beginners through to elite competitors.

2. Judo Belts

Each belt marks progress—ensure every judoka has the correct one. It’s not just tradition; it's motivation. Consider offering belts in club packs or as part of grading packages. Our club belts come in 8 colours and we have IJf approved belts in black, white, brown and blue.

3. Kit Bag

A sturdy kit bag helps students keep all their gear organized. We offer junior kit bags specifically designed to beginners in a brilliant blue or for older judokas, we have our NEWBakku Pakku Judo bags – plenty in stock!

4. Water Bottles

Hydration is key, especially in high-energy classes. Our stainless steel, Fighting Films Dragon water bottle comes in 4 colours. Or you can opt for personalising our 650ml children’s sports bottle.

5. Fingers and Toes Tape

Seasoned judokas know the importance of taping fingers and toes to prevent strain and injury. Coaches can stock rolls of tape or recommend affordable multi-packs for students.

6. Judo Keyrings & other Accessories

Fun, small items like judo-themed keyrings can be a great reward for younger judokas, or giveaways during club events.
