Product Information & Size Chart

  • Seido Tenugui - Seishin Itto Nanigoto ka Narazaran

    Made in Japan

    This traditional Tenugui (Japanese hand towel) can be used as such in Kendo, Nippon Kempo or Jukendo but also as small towel to wipe off sweat during practice.
    In the center is the logo of the Seido brand, the Kanji "Do" or "Michi", found in Aikido, Judo, Karatedo etc. which means "way".
    Roughly translated as "where there is a will, there is a way", this well known proverb "Seishin Itto Nanigoto Ka Narazaran" means more precisely "when the mind is concentrated, nothing is impossible".

    Please hand-wash in cold water before first use.

    • 100% Cotton
    • Traditional size : 98 x 34 cm
    • Traditional "Honzome" dye, meaning a dye that deeply penetrates the fiber.

    Belle manufacture. Je m'attendais à un tissus plus épais, voire une petite serviette éponge.

    Nice light tenugui for keeping sweat away

    Nice thin (standard) tenugui to effectively keep sweat away from the eyes when worn on the head, or, as I personally prefer to use it, perfect size, hardly noticeable and very light weight mini-”towel” to keep inside the fold of my dogi for wiping away sweat during keiko as needed.

    Color of the Seido logo design (i.e. Do/Michi-kanji) seems to keep well even after numerous short cold (30-40’C) cycles in the washing machine and fraying of the short sides is minimal and as expected.
    Recommended, get yours and perhaps a few extra tenugui to spare.

    Nice and light

    I thought it was a thicker towel but it's more a thin peace of cotton - but that's the way it has to be. Lesson learned. I like it but I think nearly nine € is a bit too much.

    Thank you very much for your feedback.
    Well, it's a 'tenugui', it's quite thin, it's what it is. It's a standard fabric for tenugui, and made in Japan! (which becomes quite rare these days!)
    We also sell towels, much thicker!

    Joli Tenugui

    Joli Tenugui mais un peu petit pour bien l'ajuster sous le men.

    Note du staff: il s'agit d'une taille standard réglementaire... 33 x 98 cm.

    Agréable au toucher

    Agréable au toucher et de bonne facture! Idéal à glisser dans le kimono en cas de sueurs à essuyer...

    Best hand towel for Aikidoka

    This is my second Tenugui. I've got first one about 2 years ago and it still doing it's job well. At first, I was not sure that thin material will be able to absorb all sweat during practice. Also, I was a little concerned that sides will come loose. I have to admit that I was wrong - to my surprise, Tenugui keeps me sweat-free during all 1,5-2 hours of practice. And slightly loose sides are giving me sense of hand-made product and connection to tradition.
    On top of all - Tenugui is weightless!
    Thank you, Seido!

    Really nice

    i like it a lot , i bought two pieces , the only thing i would ask is to slightly modify the sides of the piece.
