At Hajime Karate, we work every day to bring you the best karate equipment at the best possible price. With that goal in mind, we’re pleased to announce a significant price reduction for the SHUREIDO New Wave 3 WKF (two jackets — red and blue — plus one pair of trousers), effective from the beginning of the 2025–2026 season.

Why is this price drop now possible?

As you know, the SHUREIDO New Wave 3 is a high-end karategi, praised by competitors around the world for its fit, fabric and durability. At the same time, we’re aware that its price can be a challenge for many dedicated karateka who train and compete with passion.

That’s why we want to explain — with full transparency — how we are now able to offer such a significant discount:

1. Optimised shipping from Japan

Until recently, due to post-pandemic restrictions and a commitment to maintaining an artisanal production model, Shureido operated under a very limited production policy, focusing primarily on supplying the Japanese domestic market. During this period, stock arriving in Europe did so irregularly, in small quantities and always by air — which significantly increased logistical costs.

Now that production has stabilised, we’ve been able to consolidate larger orders and ship them by sea. This results in substantial savings on import costs — savings we’re passing on directly to our customers. nuestras clientas y clientes.

2. International growth and logistical improvement

Thanks to the support of the Hajime community, our brand has grown and gained visibility at both international competitions and traditional events. Today, we serve karate practitioners and competitors worldwide, which has allowed us to streamline our logistics and benefit from more efficient shipping solutions.
The result: cost savings that directly translate into a lower final price — without compromising on the quality we stand for.

3. A strong commitment to karate

This price reduction is not a temporary offer, but part of our long-term philosophy: to make top-quality karate gear accessible to those who truly need it.. We believe that karate is built from the tatami, not from marketing strategies — and that price should never be a barrier to excellence.

A new season, with greater accessibility

We want the start of this new season to be full of motivation, and we hope this initiative will help more karateka train and compete in a karategi worthy of their dedication.

In addition to the new price for the Shureido New Wave 3 WKF set, we’ve also reduced the price of the Shureido kata belt pack, (red and blue) — an essential for those competing at the highest level.
