Can't go wrong with this |

I've bought this bogu a few months ago and have to say I am absolutely happy with it. The quality hasn't been a problem so far and the price is really fair. I compared the weight to my previous bogu and the difference was only minimal but it does FEEL pretty light. Not sure if this is the placebo effect or just nice weight distribution but I am definitely happy with it. I would especially recommend this one to beginners who buy their first set of bogu as the price is really okay for what you get.
Concerning the Kote: I have not yet had any problems or more pain than usual after keiko with these.

I just received this product today. I am very pleased with it upon first look. The quality of workmanship seems first rate. Tight seams, clean edges and solid materials. I would definitely recommend this product at this time. I will update my findings after putting this bogu through it's paces at the dojo.
UPDATE: 03/31/2010 - This Bogu has performed exceptionally well in keiko and shiai. It is very light and I really don't even realize I am wearing it after a few minutes. The only thing I might recommend would be to get some wrist or kote pads. I find the men is sufficiently firm and I barely feel hits there but my wrist is purple after an evening of overzealous kendoka. This is pretty normal with any bogu so don't take it as a detraction.
Definitely give it 5 stars and 2 thumbs up. *Note: Does come with a white tenugui already which I did not know so no need to buy an extra if you don't need to (which I did).

I received mine a few days ago and am impressed with the quality. The seams look nice. Everything seemed pretty flexible too (at least everything that should be). I have only worn this once in the dojo, so I still have no idea about it's durability. It's quality seems to suggest that it will last though. I'm happy I purchased.
