The set is suitable for replacing the Chichikawa on both adult and junior Kendo Men, provided the appropriate bar position is used.
Adults – 14–15 bar Mengane: attach the Chichikawa to the fourth bar from the chin.
Children – 12–13 bar Mengane: attach the Chichikawa to the third bar from the chin.
After training, allow the Chichikawa to air naturally before storing your Men.
If necessary, wipe the surface gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove sweat, dust or surface dirt. Avoid soaking the leather.
Check the Chichikawa regularly for cracking, splitting, separation between the layers or damage around the attachment holes. As these fittings secure the Men Himo, any significant damage should be addressed before training.
Before practice, ensure the Men Himo is securely attached through the Chichikawa and that the Chichikawa itself is firmly secured to the Mengane.
After training, allow your Men to dry and air properly before placing it inside a closed Bogu bag. Avoid storing damp leather components for prolonged periods.
