31 YEARS FROM BLACK TO CORAL.
A very rare rank achieved. Today, there are estimated to be less than 100 Coral belts in the world.
Our sport is young, but it won’t be for long. Some of the people who were there in the early days are coming up on 31 years at black belt, the minimum on the road to seventh-degree coral. They gave their lives to Jiu Jitsu back when hardly anyone cared what they were doing. But they knew. And that was enough.
Limited to ONLY 10 PIECES - each meticulously-constructed, hand made belt is crafted from a heavy-duty twill cotton. Coral belts require a lot of work to make each one. 14 separate pieces of red and black fabric need to be cut and woven together painstakingly to create a proper Coral belt. Next, each piece is carefully embroidered with our company's signature kanji sayings. Our trademarked fighting roosters appear twice on the belt: once on a hand stitched tag below the rank bar, the other embroidered in the center of the belt.
Each strap will be presented in its own custom key-locked, pressure-stamped 1 of 10 belt case. Each belt is 1.6” in width.
White Kanji end of belt (死ぬまで練習): “Train Till We Die”
White Kanji above rank bar + top of stitch tag (激レア): “Very Rare”
White Kanji bottom of stitch tag (純粋な柔術): “Pure Jiu Jitsu”
