Detailed Description:

The Air Jog 3 Black Jikatabi with 3 kohaze is a modern adaptation of traditional Japanese footwear designed for martial artists. It combines the natural feel of barefoot movement with the protection of a durable sole, offering smooth transitions and optimal foot sensitivity.

This model is manufactured in China under official OEM license from Marugo Japan. It meets the brand’s quality standards at an accessible price. Ideal for dojo training, stealth-based movement, and grounded bodywork.

Important: While the smooth Air Jog sole is slip-resistant, this model is not suitable for mountain ascents, Shugendō practices, or vertical climbing techniques (Shotyō no Jutsu) such as tree climbing. For these activities, we recommend the Saibu Jikatabi, which features a highly textured, alveolar sole designed for natural terrain and vertical grip.

→ For mountain rituals and spiritual walking (Shugyō), see our dedicated white 6 or 12 kohaze jikatabi models, also available in our shop.
