5 of 5 A very good deal indeed! December 21, 2009
Reviewer: Amith Gelblum from Nir Zvi, Israel Israel  
First off I should like to point out just how satisfied I am with e-bogu's service. I'm a complete beginner and needed much help choosing my equipment. They assisted me with great patience and every question I've had was quickly answered.

Shipping wise, my kit was shipped the same day of ordering! it also arrived far quicker than I expected of (kudos for FedEx for that).

The kit itself is great. The Hakama and Keikogi are lightweight, fit nicely and so far I've not turned blue as I half expected (I don't sweat much though so maybe that's why).

The shinai's are just what you'll need for a practice shinai and are great value for their price.

My only disappointment is with the 3 Shinai bag. It’s not very practical and doesn’t even have a shoulder strap. Next time I'll get a more ‘advanced’ model like the versatile bag, which also has pockets for the accessories and a shoulder strap.

5 of 5 Awesome kit! September 16, 2009
Reviewer: Jerry Chao from San Jose, CA United States  
I love how the material is so strong and sturdy, like for the first time that I worn it while practicing it feels like the real deal. The Hakama might take a while getting used to since it is my first time wearing it. I am looking forward to future purchases from this website.

5 of 5 Fantastic Deal! Beautiful Products. May 28, 2009
Reviewer: Kiefer Shanks from Lakefield, ON Canada  
For a first uniform, this kendogi is very nice. It fits me very well. I've never been in a hakama before, and I'm quite impressed by its design. I liked the fact that their were folding instructions and steps to take when putting the uniform on. That was very helpful. The Japanese shinai that came with this deal was also surprisingly well crafted Compared to the Korean made one I am currently using, it's much nicer. I look forward to using my spare!
The bag too is useful and the budo bag is also helpful.
Great job e-bogu! I enjoyed doing business.

5 of 5 sweet combo! November 26, 2008
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from CA   
Everything you could need to start kendo or katori; hakama is light weight, gi top is thick and durable, shinai is a great addition even if you don't take kendo and the bag tops it all off!  Great deal!

Reviewer: Juan Carlos Gonzalez from Charlotte, NC United States  
Excellent deal. I am highly satisfied with my purchase. Great quality keikogi and hakama. The shinai is also very good and you even get a free bag! I will definitely buy from e-bogu again.

Reviewer: Anonymous Person  
I was very satisfied with the Kendo starter set I had ordered. They came in the amount of time I was told I would receive them, and the price beat all other suppliers. Thank you!

4 of 5 Great choice for beginners. January 31, 2007
Reviewer: Bear Philippe from Ann Arbor, MI United States  
I started doing kendo last year and this was my first purchase.  I was hesitant at first because of the prices that I has seen on other sites, but after having worn these for close to 6 months, I'm happy that I went with e-bogu.com for my first kit.

The material is very nice for the price, and it keeps me from getting over-heated during practice.  I'm a real furnace once I get warmed up, but this outfit breathes quite well and keeps me nice and cool.

My only difficulty is that the pleats can be easily lost if you don't take proper care of the hakama, but with some help from sempai, I was able to correct that.

This is the ideal choice for those new to the sport and concerned with spending wisely.  It's the best deal around.
