Thank you for always enjoying our videos!
I really appreciate it if you could support the channel🙏

I was promoted a 1st Dan Black Belt in karate last months Sensei yusuke thank you for your knowledge
Nice!!! Congrats!!!!!
Congrats!!
I used to tie my pants that same way you do but someone showed me a different way that I prefer more. I put the strings through both loops. Then you tie them together. It tightens it up better. Give it a try.
I support you so much , I am a 12year old boy who just started karate yesterday and you helped me get ready thanks so much !!
Thank you for this additional knowledge sensei!!! Everytime I received a notification from your channel I got excited coz I know its gonna be fullpack info and ideas. Thank you for sharing Japan's karate culture to us!!! Ossu!!
My favorite brand is Matsuru, i’m from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 I trained now Shotokan Karate! 🥋 but before when i was 10 to 16 years old i trained Kyokushin Kai and now i’m 30 years old
I'm from kyokushin karate too
Elastic waste band when you're over 40 is a must! I've tried the kind like you have in this video, and they were constantly slipping, untying, and terrible - never again. Elastic is king! Personally, I've mainly used Century - no reason other than readily available. Never had an issue. They last well enough, comfortable, and are just fine. Some of the newer gi pants have pockets. My next pair totally will... leave the house with keys, wallet, and phone in my gi pants, take them out before I hit the floor, and put them back in when ready to leave. Brilliant!
Jedem das Seine, perhaps. I'm over 50 now and elastic sucks at least a decade for me. YMMV :)
FUJI Gi with Elastic waist is the best for me.
My favorite brand is called Ki International. They are based in California. I always cut off the ties on the jacket as we do throws and some violet grabs that can tear them; cutting them off avoids tearing the jacket instead of the ties. We have a very different way of tying obi, but I think we end up with the same result. Big difference, maybe, in tying obi is that the knot is supposed to be over the center of your ki, and the the rest of the obi is supposed to be angled upward slightly from that point.
Ahh so it’s closer to a judo dogi
Arigato :) I have had 3 karate lessons so far just in a tracksuit, but tomorrow I'm finally gonna wear a uniform.
I usually wear a regular Everlast dogi because its the only brand available in stores here. When i was in Japan, a sensei gave me a Tokaido dogi as a "Goodbye" gift that i still havent use it. I also own a tailor made badass Black dogi made of canvas that my sensei gave to me.
What a nice sensei!
It's the best way to tie your belt, This is exactly how i learned and the way i teach my students.
My very first keikogi I have sewn myself. No kidding. Karate was prohibited in my country when I was a teenager but who cares (these Greedy 80s in the West at the time). I made it for myself. Then I helped my friend to make his own (he later shifted to Kyokushinkai and I to Goju-ryu from Shotokan and taekwondo). So our favored brand is a hand-made, perhaps. :) Need to check what brands I've got now.
As to my obi, I don't like ends of it hanging so I tug them over the belt from above down on each side of the knot (the knot is called reefing or square knot in sailing, by the way) and this is not my invention but I've seen some old Okinawan master doing this so I gave it a try and liked since. Not sure if it would be considered rude in Japanese dojo.
Thank you my friend!!
im a beginner so this video helped me out so much
thank you this really helped me
As a taekwondo practitioner, I like the Korean brand Mooto (pronounced like mu-tou). They also make karate dogi as well, but I've never tried them.
As a cheaper but still high-quality brand, I like the USA brand BMA (Best Martial Arts Supply).
For taekwondo dobok under Kukkiwon style, our regular uniforms have V-neck collars, but there are special kata (poomsae) uniforms for competition that are open-jacket style like a regular dogi.
Likewise!!!! Mooto is one of the best! I love Dae Do as well (just saw your comment after I commented xD)
My judo gis are all Mizuno, TKD ITF dobaks are Adidas while my Chung Do Kwan dobak for testing and forms is a Tokaido. My karate gis are ProForce (lightweight for training, heavyweight for testing and kata) Once I get my shodan (a few years out on that) I will end up order another Tokaido or a Mizuno.
Well, I'm a Taekwondo Athlete, not a Karate Athlete. I'm basically here because I love the similarities (due to the history of Japan and Korea (Japans occupation of Korea etc) in regards to how and why Karate influenced the start of TKD), as well as the differences with the arts itself. And I love your channel. Anyways, my favorite brands for a Dobok (korean word for Gi) and Tee (korean word for Obi), are Mooto and Dae Do. Both lightweight, super comfortable, although expensive but really good quality.
You so cute, u really inspire Mee to do karate with lots of hardwork ♥
Cool work sir 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
In Brazil we call it Kimono, I'm happy because in Japan it's Dogi, now I learned how to say Kimono in Japanese!
You are using the wrong name, Kimono is a dress en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimono Dogi is the correct name as the translation is something like "Martial arts clothes"
@@matsug5704 in Brazil we say Kimono. I studied Kenyu-Kai Karate.
Interesting question to ask about the prefered Gi brand 😄 Here in Germany I know a lot of people wearing Kaiten (回天). I've got a Kaiten America, which was hugely popular here around 10 years ago. But I realized it doesn't really fit my body type, so I am now planning to switch to a Hayate Gi.
Edit: Kwon is also a very popular brand for Gi, but especially for Obi.
Hello sensei! I see that in your video description you always put your filming gear, but never put your karate gear, i think it would be a nice addition to have the diferents models and brand of the karategi and obi (and maybe protections if its a sparring/kumite video) you are using in each video, keep up the good work! Its always nice to see how karate is all around the world!
Thanks for the idea!
Aloha! Have you made a video on how to alter your dogi for tournament requirements? Also perhaps explaining the different versions or styles....for example...kumite vs kata dogi, Japanese cut vs American cut. When I see national and international tournaments, the competitors always look so neat and refined, as far as their dogi is concerned. Personally, I prefer Hirota, Shureido, and Seishin for kata, and Tokaido for kumite. Thank you very much for all your videos. They're very informative and entertaining.
Nice😍😍
I wear Century and Kwon brand uniforms. I also tie my belt with the knot opening facing the right hand side instead of left.
Thank you so much I had no idea how to put on a gee because I had a tournament to get my yellow belt
This is one constructive karate dogi!
Yusuke san could you make a video about how to wear a KATA dogi and how to adjusting the detail of the dogi it self please?
mine just came in I really don't know how to wear it XD tnx for this vid 😁🙃
Nice video 👍 sensei
Thanksb
Satori out of Canada.. custom fit options. Best dogi I have ever worn
Oh wow first time hearing it!
My favorite karategi brand are Takaido and Musashi Genbudo.
My favorite is Shureido Brand
My favorite brand is Shureido
I love my KAITEN Gi
My favourite is TOKAIDO ! I tie belt tradicional way, a little diferente ! Oss 🥋
I love KIHON brand ❤️
I like Fuji for the dogi as for the obi I like Satori as it is soft and comfortable
In the North of England we have our own martial art and we wear flat caps with our Dogi, our art is called EcKithump! :)
Interesting!
Hello,
I used to wear a JK karategi for about 15 years. 2 years ago I wanted to buy a Shureido karategi, which I was told are the absolute best. But there was a huge waiting liste, even more so as I am 6ft4 tall, so instead I bought a Kamikaze (Spanish made) "Monarch" karategi, which I am very happy with.
If I had to change it, I would still go with a Shureido, or maybe the Seishin brand designed by Jesse Enkamp.
I was seeing if I need to use a t-shirt jsjsjsjs, well I guess it’s a bit more comfy using one
The way I tie my obi is different to this and feels much easier, I'd confuse myself trying to tie it the way you've done it in this video haha
Haha! Please give it a try!
My favourite Karate Dogi brand and belts is Isami.
Pant holes in English are called Loops. Great video keep up the good work.
I use Hirota Dogi
I am also a black belt, I never wear those pants. U get. Karate pants from adidas (or similar) like a jogging pant. Way easier more air way more flexible and looks almost the same.
I am never admitting to my instructors that I still have to use a youtube tutorial to tie my gi as a black belt, thank you for this though.
I miss to wear karate gi again.. i get promoted to 1st dan black belt almost 20years ago. But i stop due to some reason.. I want to start it back and want to teach my daughter
TOKAIDO ! Oss !
I would like to se you do miyage do karate .
love you videos i would like to see more. stay safe and healthy.
I'm from Mexico, my favorite karategi brand is Tokaido, but I haven't tried that many brands.
inmho - When putting on your obi, you should NEVER allow it to drag across the floor as you go about putting it on.
Oh why do you think so?
1:35 same here! :-)
Sensei yusuke you wear your belt so smoothly HAHAHA mine is so stiff
Haha mine’s a cheap one!
i love my Seishin Gi
Nice!
some basics! 👍😅
Haha yep!
I usually tie my pants with the knot around the loops because I'm kind of skinny, but if I choose a smaller size it's to short. I ware the Arawaza karate gi.
I do own a Dobok(wtf/Olympic) but the jacket dobok don't have an open jacket. But i do tie my own belt as a black belt
But in my Dogi, I've 1 loop on the front side & another loop at the back. In this case, how will I wear the pant??
Hi Yusuke, been following you lately (since I recently got back into karate). Sizing dilemma: I used to have a flat stomach and my Do-gi used to fit perfectly. I was a size 5 and slim, and even after some minor shrinking, never had issues. it was 100% cotton heavy weight. That was many years ago. I just got a fuji size 5 heavy weight 100% cotton and seems kinda snug or (perfect) around my now larger gut. I'm hoping to loose some extra weight. but I'm concerned it will shrink and be too tight? most guys in my dojo wear light weight tiger claw cotton poly blend, and using a borrowed do-gi. It's much more comfortable for regular practice and less hot than what I've been used to. I'm debating a compromise and asking your advice: Should I get a medium weight cotton for regular use, a size bigger like a 7 and let it shrink into a better fit like a shrunk into 6 (till I shape up or even after)? or just get a poly blend ? what do you use/ recommend for regular training and practice which also looks sharp and feels right? Also, in general, if I'm trying a new do-gi and the inside jacket strings tie completely close together with extra room, shouldn't I get a larger size so after shrinkage, it wont be too tight/ the strings wont tie hanging on my body?
After watching your video i realised I've been wearing my uniform in a wrong way 😅 thanks for making this video it's save me from the embarassment 😄
Can you make a video about how to wash a karate gi for kata?
Everyone I know wears Tokkaido but I have KI and it's slightly cheaper but still good
I do taekwondo but that's not how i do it i might try it great video
I tie my belt differently - cross at the back, cross at the front then tie. Are there any benefits to doing it the other way? I've been rocking a Tokaido gi for the past year and it's wonderful. Highly highly recommend.
I feel like the one belt way can better hold your pants in place!
I like the Mitsubishi or the Juka brands.
Mitsuboshi
Also a JUKA fan. Best fit and feel heavy do-gi's I have.
hello from algeria
Oss Sensi..
My favourite Dogi Brand is... Mooto... Wait, it's a Dobok.
Shureido Tournament TK-10 or Hayashi Ledgeng (Gemany)
I have two hand-me down Hirota that are a bit too small in the shoulders and the pants are a bit too short. However the material feels the best. When I next go to Japan I plan to buy two or even three more, but custom fit for me.
I had a heavy canvas KI dogi that was in taters from using it, obviously my favorite in my 20s when I was 84kg! I left my Century Iron Man dogis in the US -- the black one fit amazingly well and I wore it daily for many years. The Iron Mans were very well made and fit my large legs, but at the time I moved I thought my Tokaido was a better choice.
I brought the Tokaido dogi as my regular training dogi.
Your dogi is Hirota, but your obi looks like a Shureido. Is that so? What's the signifigance if it is not the same brand, and is there a prefered way of matching or mismatching these pieces or peieces over all?
Thank you!
Ugh thanks for the video
My belt is tied so wrong at times, it is so noticeable that I get called out by my teacher
It's always those two people in every karate class that are never tying their clothes right and I'm one of them 😑
Just practice tying your belt regularly and you'll get it 😎 osu!
🥰🥰🥰🥰
do you wash the belt seperate? and is it safe to wash with other white clothes (painters overalls which may have water based paint on them) and hot or cold wash? i only have cold wash lol
I like how I know how to wear a gi but I still clicked the video haha
Well, welcome to the video!
just opposite direction i put belt on my waist. means left to right direction. my favourite brand ..yeah ofcourse ..Shureido.
Nice!
Was told, looking down, clockwise around waist for Korean styles, counter clockwise for Japanese styles. The direction of wrap determines which direction the knot points. The jacket is left over right for right handed, reverse if left handed; such that a sword when pulled from the waist will not get cought in you jacket.
Is there a rule on which side in a blackbelt should the embroideries be positioned? Like where should the style/dojo embroidery be, on the left side or right? Thanks!
I always do lazy style belt tying
(The one where you put the center in the middle then loop around back ect)
Every time I do this style something always goes terribly wrong
Haha yeah it’s hard to control
The style that takes like 3 seconds to tie? That's what I learned. Looking at this reminded me of when I was learning to tie a bowtie. It was freaking hard and took lots of practice but at least here you aren't trying to look in a mirror and tie the belt. lol
One question
Can you talk about what to write in Japanese on the black belt? Thanks sensei
I just buying my gi
How is your English so good?
I got my green belt in okinawan karate
I practice karate do and Muay thai
We were told the label on the obi should be the same side as the dogi. Is this the case in other organisations?
I’m a student within SKKIF (UK)
Love the Hirota brand 🥋👍
Yusuke Sensei which company made your belt....
Replying so I can see when he replies lol
I’ve seen that type of embroidery with organization logo in Tokaido custom made belts.
But since his gi is Hirota the belt might be hirota as well
Watching the video i think his belt is tokido i have seen a logo of tokido from Google
I use"Hanah" do gi. Not the best but not the worst
I see!
Can I tie the belt in the same way even tho I have an another karate brand? (I'm training kyokushin)
What u think about kuk sool won karate
I never liked the tie tops and alwyas purchased the pull over tops.
I just know that I need a new dogi.
Where can I get the Hirota Gi 🥋 in the USA? I can’t find it online nor in Amazon!
I wear the pants over my head :P
Haha
Hello sensei Yusuke. I write from Portugal. I follow your channel. I'm looking for Dogi from the shogun brand. Do you know if this brand still exists in Japan? I find stores in Europe and Brazil that sell dogi that claim to be Shogun but on the internet I can't find anything about the brand's producer. Thanks
We have the same style of Pants lol
Which brands gi do you use
What brand is your karategi?
Which karate style you are
Do you wear a heavy karategi ?
1st thing 👁do is ✂ Off strings!
What Gi brand to you prefer to use?
I don’t have a strong preference!
Is it normal to have pants keep slipping no matter how tight you have tied the strings? Every time I kick, i keep pulling my pants. lol
