Metal handles don't feel like a gi. So we put real gi fabric on the cable machine.

Tale of the tapeHandles and towels
Handles and towels
aren't a gi.
You get stronger on rubber handles and metal rings. It just doesn't carry over to the mats. Kimono Grip puts gi fabric on the machines you already use.

Corner advice
Questions
What does it clip onto?
Cable machines. Hook the carabiner where the handle goes. It also works on kettlebells, dumbbells, pull-up bars and barbells.
Will it fit my hand? What about my gym's handles?
One size fits any hand and most gym handles. Not sure about a piece of gear at your gym? Message us before you order and we'll tell you straight.
What's it made of?
Real 550 GSM pearl weave gi fabric. It comes in white, with KIMONO and GRIP embroidered on the two tails.
Which grips does it train?
Sleeve, collar and lapel grips. You're holding real gi fabric, not a steel handle or a towel.
Do I need one or more?
One grip has two tails, one for each hand, so one is enough to start. Two covers your gym bag and a home setup, or you split them with a training partner. Three adds a spare.
