• Fabric: 100% Cotton
• Waist Tie & Belt Loops: The pants feature a traditional waist tie as well as belt loops for securing your Judo belt (obi). This provides an extra level of security and ensures the pants stay in place during vigorous training.
• Reinforced Knees: Double-layered knees offer added durability to withstand the constant pressure and friction from kneeling on the mat.
