Description
The Karategui Shureido New Wave 3- WKF, is the most popular karategi in Kata competitions. It is used by the karatekas and teams with the highest Kata ranking. Teams from Japan, Turkey or Hong Kong do not hesitate to compete with this unrivalled Karategui. Its SNAP effect is unrivalled and so is its presence. The karategui enhances the strength of the karateka and the precision of its movements with every sound, with every position. The skirt is at just the right height and stays stretched from behind without falling. The sleeves and trousers are pre-cut to WKF competition size, adapted to a standard size. The same cut of the uniform is more adjusted to the body of the karateka, more fitted.
What special features does the New Wave 3 fabric have?
The yarn is a double-structured grain and contains polyester staples as a central core, covered with cotton. This innovative material has a skin-friendly texture and at the same time features a strong, unique central core. The snap provided by this karategi is second to none.
It is a heavy weight Karategi, made of a blend of polyester and cotton. Suitable for dynamic movements thanks to its three-dimensional cut trousers.
The fabric is exceptionally firm. It retains its shape with a special sewing system that in turn absorbs sweat in the back.
The shrinkage of the jacket and trousers length is 2 cm.
Weight reference for NW-3: 1.5 kg / size 4 (jacket and trousers).
