The new WKF body protector from Budo-Nord has a slightly wider cut at the chest level. It now suits women and men equally well. We have also made shoulder straps and waist straps adjustable so you can fit the protector after your own body. It is lightweight and flexible body protector that won’t interfere with fast movements. The protector dampens and spreads shock power over a larger area. The protector has been developed by WKF in order to reduce rib-fractures among other things.
The protector is to be used like a vest underneath karate uniform or on top of the unform depending on Karate competition category
The protector is WKF-approved for competitions, and its use is mandatory for all cadets in all WKF-sanctioned competitions. We recommend that you use this protector for kumite-practice as well to familiarize with it.
