About Pinack

"Hirota is an excellent brand. Made to measure Pinack is my choice. Customised fitting allows excellent movement when teaching and training. Light for when travelling!"
Yasuyuki Aragane, 8th Dan Shotokan Karate, Tokyo (Japan)

Pinack is a newly developed material specifically designed by Hirota. With their knowledge and expertise they have researched how many vertical and horizontal threads to use in order to create the optimal finish.

Original Pinack

• A very light material, but very strong.
• Designed to make you more aerodynamic.
• Good for hot climates.
• Easy to wash.
• Quick to dry.
• Very light to carry around.

As your technique improves you will notice that this material will give you a good and sharp thrust when delivering moves.

New Pinack

• Slightly heavier than the original Pinack.
• Light material, but very strong.
• Easy to wash.
• Quick to dry.
• Still light to carry around.

As your technique improves you will notice that this material gives you a good and sharp thrust/snap when delivering your moves. Being heavier, this feel will be even greater than with the Original Pinack.
