Where can I obtain a Judo Suit?
We can supply you with a Judogi (Judo Suit)
at very reasonable rates and often second-hand
kit is valuable. A child suit costs around £18
and adults start from £25, second hand suits are
usually around £10. The Judogi is reinforced in
all the right places and consists of a jacket,
trousers and belt. The only other personal
equipment required would be a pair of zori, which
are Japanese style slippers. These are needed for
walking to and from the training or contest mat.
Most people use a pair of flip-flops.
