I’ve worn several Kataaro belts thus far and I’ve been impressed with every last one of them. Comfortable, well made, perfect stitching, vibrant color, and US Made!
2 of the things i got from my mom was a love for martial arts, and the ability to sew. I recently started making my own belts, its a pretty cool and rewarding experience. Im thinking when i have a student reach black belt i will custom make their belt for them. Whats more personal than that?
That’s really cool man! Good for you! Having somebody physically MAKE a belt for you is awesome.
I have a pretty cool belt display in my basement for all my belts (& my daughters too).
After 7 years in TKD, we are now brand new BJJ white belts.
You’re never too old to begin again!
itscork thats. Awesome. Its good to hear others have that relationship with their kids. I wish u guys luck OSS
Slider X that’s amazing! I just got my brown belt last night and i think having my professor making me a black belt one day would be incredible.
Timing on this video is clutch. I was just asking a bunch of people about these belts.. great video Ryan. Thank you!
Thanks for watching! Have an awesome day!
Thank you very much for your videos professor
Kataaro belts are great. My black belt for Modern Arnis is one of their belts. They definitely make high quality goods.
Haha oh man that actual "black belt" is pretty cool
Ordered a belt. Used your link. Thanks for the review and videos 👍
Thank you for your support!
Thanks for the great info Ryan!
WHATS IN THE BOX?!?!
I just ordered my Kataaro belt with a red transition, i cant wait to get it, should be about 2 weeks before shipping
So awesome! You’ll love it for sure!
Ugh! Damn you Professor Ryan! My daughter got her 2nd white belt stripe today and after watching this video I ordered a Kataaro belt for her. $84... but I will be the man when she opens it on Christmas!
Yay, Dad! She will absolutely love it! Which one did you order?
@@KamaJiuJitsu The Jiu-jitsu rank belt with her name embroidered on it. To be fair, the belt wasn't over priced, I just paid for rush shipping.
that's what our assistant instructor said when i was reading your comment with him next to me.
Great video. I will check out the website. Thanks for sharing my Brother.
the grappeling weave looks cool, i dont think i ever come across those style belts. I do love Fuji equipment. and Origin gear. but that grapple weave belt looks cool
It stays tied really well, too, bec of the added friction that weave provides. Try it. I love mine!
It’s “swipe up”, but when you have a black belt it’s “sweep up”. 🤣
Congrats on your 2nd Degree, Ryan!!!! I know you aren't super focused on the ranking stuff but that is well deserved! It also looks like Dave got his 5th? Which is about time he got that hahahaha
Yeah, not a big deal at the end of the day, but recognition is always nice. Prof Jack Taufer also got his 2nd Degree. Thank you from the both of us. Very much appreciated!
Do you have an Eosin Panther belt Professor! Would love a comparison video. Happy Holidays!
I don’t. If they send me one, I will. But I have 5 Kataaro belts…
That shirt is awesome 😂🤝
Came across your vids. I enjoy hearing your perspective. I'll be ordering a Kataaro Black Belt. Before I do, I was wondering if you knew the width of the belts you showed in the vid, or have a suggestion on width. Thanks
thank you. you'll LOVE their belts! we just order the 1.75" width, but they also have 2", if you prefer a wider belt. also, be sure to account for about 5-6" of shrinkage if you plan to wash it.
Nice belts
And a year later, a giveaway!! #kaataro
I’m still a white belt for almost a month I’m almost my first stripe
Project Zorgo PZ1 It’s been 5 months since this comment! Hopefully the journey has been good to you. Keep trucking!
How's it going?
I am sorry but martial arts is not the only idea in my life it's a part of my life not about my whole life I am a mechanic a technician that is also some skills I posses so I feel that is a part of my life I can share also
That’s awesome!
Excellent belts reviews Professor Ryan Young! ISAMI is actually based out of Tokyo, Japan! With all due respect the ISAMI in Europe is not affiliated with the one in Japan, of which they often say so. In other words the original ISAMI manufacturer from Japan, has made it publicly known that they are separate entities if I can put nicely and leave it at that.
ISAMI commenced mainly making belts for Judo as well as Kyokushin Karate, as Sosai Oyama Masutatsu, being both a 4th dan black belt in judo, as well as a Kyokushin Karate tenth dan black belt, was originally one of their most famous and renowned customers. Over the years ISAMI has expanded to manufacturing judo, Karate, jiu-jitsu, Taekwondo, etc uniforms and belts world wide.
Your ISAMI black belt with the embroidery, does indeed say jiu-jitsu (柔道) in Japanese Kanji (letters). Just wondering what made you get an embroidered black belt from ISAMI, along with your name and so forth? I have noticed that most Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioners are wearing plain black belts and so forth. Though some are now getting personalised black belts, along with their names and degrees embroidered, instead of the good old fashioned medical tape.
By the way if you do not mind me asking, where did you obtain your black belt, that you can wear with your regular clothes? That looks awesome! Thank you for such an insightful video on the various belts. While our Kyokushin Karate organisation issues our official, embroidered personal belts from ISAMI in Japan, I actually want to order another belt of my own, from Kataro. Greetings from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 also wishing you, your students and family, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. God bless you all, Osu! 👍 ☺ ✌
Master Dave gave me the Isami black belt. He ordered it as I received it, with the embroidery.
As far as the black belt for clothing, I got mine from www.onthemst.com. Lucky Gi makes one, as does Isami.
The Isami I’m referring to is www.chokesports.com
Not sure if that is the Japanese one.
Kama Jiu-Jitsu thank you for your kind response to my question. I truly appreciate your time and benevolence, in doing so! Ah Chokesports is indeed associated with ISAMI, the original one founded in Tokyo Japan, with affiliates in Osaka, Yokohama, as well as Seoul (South Korea). Again without offending, or stepping on any body's toes, unfortunately there is an unofficial ISAMI store out of Germany, as well one in China of which as I mentioned previously, ISAMI Japan has not acknowledged as one of their official partners. I just jumped on the Chokesports website and they have a picture of Rickson Gracie and some other Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioners, with their gis and belts from ISAMI!
How nice of Master Dave Kama, to have presented you, with that very nice and embroidered black belt from ISAMI. That and the Kataro black belt, are my favourite from your video review. Thank you for providing the link for the black belt, that one can wear with their regular clothing. I am definitely going to get my hands on one of those.
Just curious have you ever reviewed, compared any of the various Brazilian jiu-jitsu gis, that you have used, trained or currently owned? You briefly mentioned the original ones from Tiger brand from Brazil in the early years of the art? Also do you and professor Dave, happen to have a Kama jiu-jitsu Facebook page? Thanking you yet again for your time and kindness Professor Ryan, for answering my questions, Osu! 👍
The first link I posted was bad. The Kataaro link should work now.
Yes, it was an extremely nice gesture for Dave to present me with new belts.
At some point, I’ll post some gi reviews.
Facebook pages are Kama Jiu-Jitsu and Kama Jiu-Jitsu Dallas Fort Worth
Kama Jiu-Jitsu awesome thank you, I will look up both of your affiliated Kama Jiu-jitsu Facebook pages. From time to time I see you tend to have the same beverage, while you are doing your video segments. For some inexplicable reason, it reminds me of Starbucks 😁.
Ryan im from the U.K im really trying to get to the U.S to your academy in the near future if all goes to plan.I am really big on the idea that if you learn this art then you need to start with the self defence because i found that if you start with sport jujitsu it takes you much much longer to understand it and apply it effectivly.Thats if you work that out at all, to me it sort of sends the wrong message out and i know for a fact most people who quit early would not if they started with self defence.Here in the uk its light years apart from the U.S in the way of schools and good teachers and it being taught correctly, im really struggling to find a good self defence teaching school were i live.I mean they are here but they are just not possible for me to get to them at the moment.My goal is to progress in the art the correct way(in my eyes S.D)and eventually teach other people and spread it that way all over the U.K.Do you know of any good practitionars in the north of England (Yorkshire) if so i would be greatfull for your in put as i have exausted my search and i just feel like im wasting valuble time practising sport and not practising at all.its so frustrating thus im commenting here i watch you all the time and i support your patreon channel.Many thanks.
i really feel your pain, so to speak. unfortunately, until we begin to make trips out there, we have no relationships/network out in the UK. hopefully in 2019, we can get someone out there to teach a couple classes.
Stiff vs regular?
Kataaros are awesome, my dad and I have used them in Karate for years. I have been leaning towards getting one for my next jiu jitsu belt, we'll see when that comes.
Weirdly i can't watch this video in blue light filter (night mode)...
Yeah, something weird happened to the render. Next videos will be fine, but I don’t know what happened to this one. Some settings got flipped on. - Rusty
Ryan, does the grappling weave fray?
It’ll take a while to do so, but yes, every belt will eventually gray with use. But the Kataaros seem to last much longer than other belts.
Seems like alot of good belts. which one is your favorite belt so far?
Grappling weave with the red core is my favorite... but it’s difficult to choose between them all (I have four of them).
Hey Ryan, does the grappling weave also shrink?
it does. so get it about 5"-6" LONGER than what you want to end up with.
Where I go is Rodrigo Freitas BJJ he has pictures of you
pictures of me, huh?
hmmm...
"They just like to spend money on stuff" u know Prof. Ryan sometimes u just need an excuse to buy something lol
Hi Ryan, does the grappling weave belt still have a white cotton core, or is it gi material throughout? Thanks for the videos
White core, IIRC.
I also have one w a red core, as well.
Great video! How much did you find that the Grappling Weave belt shrink? I'm thinking of picking one up but I'm worried that it will shrink too much and I would have wasted a considerable amount of money.
All of mine shrank about 6 inches. Measure your current belt. If you like the length, add 6-8 inches to your current belt in your order.
Kama Jiu-Jitsu Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it! 🙏🏽
Question: is it wrong to have a signed jiujitsu belt from your favorite practitioner, but you simply have it in a display case as part of your memorabilia?
I would think not. Those are cool. Like signed gloves by Floyd Mayweather!
How long would you recommend a white belt waits until competing
It's up to you ultimately, whenever you feel comfortable. Think about it just like a class session but tap sooner if you get caught
Agreed, make sure not to fight arm locks or any sort of lock where fighting it to hard or for to long could cause a permanent injury... It's a competition, it's not life or death. Good Luck
Whenever the “itch” becomes too bad to resist?
Depends how often you train
How wide are these belts? Kataaro has options of 2 inches or wider. Is 2 inches too wide for regular wear?
it's all personal preference. the Lucky Gis belts i used to buy are 1.75", and the Kataaro belts i buy (i have 4 of them) are all 2". they have a thinner version of the belt that "collapses" better when tied if you don't like how the belt unties when new, esp when they're wider.
@@KamaJiuJitsu Thanks a lot for the reply! Do you use the conventional belt knot on the 2" belts? Do they stay tied? I'm looking to get the stiff deluxe version at 2" for my upcoming blue belt promotion - I figure to stay at blue belt for a couple of years. Cheers!
Get the grappling weave if staying tied while the belt is still new matters.
Opinion on the Stiff vs Soft core options?
Which did you buy?
How much did your Kataaro belts shrink after washing?
A good 5-6 inches. I normally like my belt to be around 110” long, so I buy the 115” and wash it, and it fits perfectly after that.
Wow!! That is a lot of shrinkage. Thanks Ryan. I just got mine and it's a lot longer than what I am use to. @@KamaJiuJitsu
Which Kataaro has been your favorite belt and why?
Of all the ones I have (I have three), I prefer the grappling weave.
Which belt type do you recommend from them the most?
I kinda like my grappling weave the best. Tends to stay tied best.
Kama Jiu-Jitsu thanks. I’ll make sure to use your link
thank you very much!
This was the question on my mind.. thanks!
How often do you wash your belt?
After every use.
Kama Jiu-Jitsu how much shrinkage do you get when washing that often? Any tips on washing?
The shrinkage only happens once. That’s why I buy the 115” long belt (A3?) and shrink it down to 110” by washing it and throwing it in the dryer with my gi (A2?).
Question...If you are a 2 degree black belt with those stripes sewn on....Does Professor Dave just hand you a new belt with 3 stripes already sewn on? Or do you take your initial belt to a tailor or something to get a nice sewn stripe on your black belt? Or mail the belt back to Kataaro or whichever company and ask for them to sew it on? Sorry if my questions seem confusing and thanks.
So far, Dave gave me a new custom belt both times he promoted me, which is a beautiful gesture that I appreciate, but never expect. My remaining Kataaro belts, I’ll mail in to be “updated.”
@@KamaJiuJitsu Nice! It would be cool to see those belts "updated" in the future.
As long as I keep doing what I’m doing, it’s just time. And I’m not looking forward to getting older, faster!
The only thing you lose when you wash it is the color, the knowledge is in the head right?... you can wash a bit of knowledge if you stop doing BJJ.
Absolutely correct!
why will you never have 8 bars ?
i have to be a "teaching" black belt for 38 years to achieve that rank.
i'll be 82 years old by then, lol.
@@KamaJiuJitsu So..if you live to see 82 you wont be training Jiu Jitsu?
If I’m living and not “broken,” I’ll be teaching (if people still want to learn from me when I’m that age!) and hopefully, still training.
@@KamaJiuJitsu osu
LOL...NO U CANNOT WARE YOUR BB IN PUBLIC...BEE HUMBLE...OR NOT...hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "P
You mentioned the notion of not washing one's belt, according to some superstition. Unfortunately that exists in various martial arts styles. Some people say that once you progress to another rank and you obtain a new belt, that they should tie a permanent knot, to retire that belt once and for all. Good God, not to offend anyone however it is funny how the creators of the style, did not create such superstitious and weird, ritualistic practices.
To me as you said in some of your other videos, hygiene is very important, when training with one's fellow students. Of which it is important that one washes their gis, belts and other training attire or equipment, as regularly as possible. I use two gis for my training which is Monday to Thursday, then on Saturday and Sunday, I use another third gi, when I train with my own students. I wash all three gis once a week, nevertheless I have trained with some individuals, that only use one gi and good God it seems like they only wash them once a year. The foul odour that emanates from such smelly gis, is putrid!
I tell my students to wear clean, washed, tidy gis, along with finger and toe nails, kept short, also to shower and deodorise themselves adequately. No one should be subjected to someone's, offensive and awful hygiene. As for the belts I admit as our style is predominantly a stand up, striking art. I often tell my students to hang their belts on the clothesline, after each training session, or at least once a week, when there is no training, so that fresh air ventilates them.
