The Anti-bacterial BioClean Iaido Hakama "SAYAKA" is made with polyester fabric that has been mixed with Deocell® fiber. Because of this, the Hakama is excellent to wear during summer as it is lightweight, sweat absorbing and quick-drying. It also prevents unwanted bacterial growth and odor, keeping your Hakama hygienic and clean for a longer period of time.

the Deocell® fiber is a natural cellulose fiber which does not cover the odors but dissolves and eliminates them thanks to it's anti-bacterial properties. It does this by breaking up the ammonia chemicals which are present in sweat, dissolving and neutralizing the odors. Because it is a natural cellulose fiber it's very delicate on the skin as it has a natural PH which is close to the PH of the skin, and does not release any dangerous substances. It also does not need any specific treatments to keep it's characteristics, and thus the fabric will keep it's anti-bacterial properties even after repeated cleaning and usage.

The Hakama also features inner-stitched pleats, to prevent the pleats from loosing their shape and also makes it a breeze to wash and fold your Hakama, without having to worry about the pleats loosing their shape.

Each set is hand-made by our experienced tailors in our headquarters in Nishijin, Kyoto

Height recommendations are only for reference.
