Nidan Melbourne Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 I've been asked by a few students, who by the nature of their build require a longer than standard belt. The longest I usually see sold is between 360-400cm. Unfortunately these are short for some of my students even if they were a single wrapped. As such, what business could you point me to that I could get one straight up or custom order? I don't mind paying in another currency other than my usual (Australian Dollar)
aurik Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 You must have some REALLY big students -- I'm 6'2" and weigh 300+ lbs, and I have no problem with a size 9 (~380cm) belt (double wrapped). I know that Eosin Panther does offer color belts up to size 14 (419cm). However, they are MUCH more expensive than your standard color belt...
