The Tozando headquarters have been based in Kyoto's district of Nishijin for many years now, an area of the city which has long been famous for traditional tailoring, in particular in the production of Japanese kimono. At Tozando's main store, we have a full team of former kimono tailors and artisans who work each day to produce the finest examples of budo wear in the industry. Our tailored hakama and dogi are the result of extensive research we have made throughout the years, and is therefore based on our tailor's perpetual awareness of the design and development of traditional Japanese clothing. We off you the chance to own a completely tailor-made hakama, made exclusively to your measurements and requirements. Especially developed for use in Kendo, these hakama feature a sturdy koshi-ita, to give additional support to the lower-back and help encourage a correct posture. Each of our Custom Hakama are completely made to order, by professional tailors here in Kyoto, Japan. Every effort is made to ensure that each garment is produced with the utmost care and attention, and no corners are cut in their manufacturing. For this reason, production usually takes around 4-6 weeks as standard.
