The Future is Looking Green



Kimurawear has always been dedicated to maintaining a greener environment. Our green policies are in place to provide a cleaner and brighter future. One way in which we do this is by reducing our paper consumption as much possible. Our product catalog is only available on digital format and all of our paper used throughout our office is recycled paper.



Another of our green policies involves the production of our products. All of our prints are water based instead of the more polluting oil based inks. Also, the majority of our apparel is manufactured with organic cottons.

Thiago Silva is Back



On March 31st, Kimurawear was in Coconut Creek Florida to take in some of Thiago Silva's training, as he prepares for his comeback fight on April 14th. Thiago Silva has been out of action for over a year and is looking to make a big impact upon his return during the UFC's first foray into Sweden. His opponent will be rising swedish star Alexander Gustafsson. This fight will see ether Thiago return to a top contender or continuation of Gustafsson's rise up the ranks.



Thiago Silva's raw and real talent can be seen in the photo-shoot that he took part in for Kimurawears ReActive line. Black eye and all, Thiago brought the intensity that he is known for into every picture taken. Kimurawears ReActive line is a high end and high tech product line that is geared towards everyday gym heros or professional athletes. The line contains mens and women's gloves, shin guards, muay thai pads, body protectors, mini target pads, curved kick shields, mma 4oz gloves, focus pads, 7oz hybrid gloves and head gear.



The technology behind the line lies in the reactive foam that is a main component in all the above products construction. This foam is specially designed, so that upon impact the product is able to reform its shape up to 60% faster than normal. This Technology reduces the repeated impact of multiple strikes, by reforming to its original state at a faster rate, then traditional foam. This allows for a safer and more protective environment , during fighting and training.



Thiago was in full Kimurawear ReActive gear for his training and photo-shoot in Florida. We are proud to have Thiago as the face of our ReActive line and are very excited to see his return to the octagon. We know Thiago will looking for the finish in Sweden and can guarantee an exciting fight.

12 and 9 Inch Speed Bags Released



Mixed martial arts encompasses a variety of different arts, in-order to create the best possible fighter. One of the arts that is used in MMA, is the sweet science of boxing. Boxers rely on fast hand combinations in-order to out punch there opponents and are always looking for the knockout. The speed of which a fighter can deliver punches whether in mma or boxing, can be the deciding factor in determining the outcome of a fight. Boxers have relied on the speed bag for many years to keep there hands fast and sharp. At Kimurawear we have had great success with our initial 12 inch speed bag, and look to build on this success with a new 12 inch model as well as a smaller 9 inch model.





Both of our new models of speed bags are made with all premium leather and have been triple stitched in order to provide a top quality and durable product to our customers. The reason we now offer two different sizes in our speed bag line, is not only to give our customers more options, but to establish a beginner product (12 Inch) and a more advanced product (9 Inch). A key feature which differentiates our speed bags from the rest of the market can be found in the loop at the top of the speed bag. This part of the bag sees most of the wear and tear, and in order to counter that problem we have reinforced the loop with canvass liner.

New 7oz Hybrid MMA Training Gloves



With the succes of our original 7oz hybrid mma training glove, it was a no brainer to continue the sucess with a new version of the glove. As with all of our products at Kimurawear, we dont just change the look of the product and then sell it. We strive to improve on the previous version of the product and make the product work better for the end user.



Our new 7oz hybrid training mma glove is loaded with new features that look at makeing a better and safer product for our customers. The wrist strap has been lengthened in order to allow a double wrap around the users wrist. A double wrap arround the wrist adds strenght and support to the users wrist, and prevents any kind of wrist injury from training.Another important feature that has been added to hybrid glove is added protection to the thumb portion of the glove. With mma gloves the thumb is exposed in training and has a chance of being injured. We took this into consideration with our glove reamake and added some extra protection in order to limit thumb injury. Our final new feature that the hybrid glove has is a softer mold on the inside of the glove. Our gloves are made from a high quality EVA foam material. We created a softer mold for the glove in order to add extra mobility for the users hand. This extra mobility adds comfort and flexibility to the user.
