Dark Blue BJJ Belt

mvisit1 · 04-02-2009, 11:33 PM

I don't like light blue belts, I want mine to be dark. Who makes a nice, thick/tough, DARK blue belt?

Also, has anyone seen a WAR blue belt? I know they are awesome because they're made of gi material but there's only a pic of a white one on brazilianfightwear.com...wish I knew how dark it was.

I haven't been promoted yet, but I feel I feel close and I want to put it somewhere where I can look at it all the time, a motivational tool, if you will. It'll help get me out of bed for the 7am gi class on Wed/Fri and go on the weekends when I don't feel like it.

***I would like to qualify that last statement by saying that a fellow classmate of mine has already received his blue, we started on the exact same day, and he's not THAT much better than me***

I have a war brown belt, and I love it. I would reccommend it no matter what shade it comes.

HCK makes a darker blue belt that's cheap too.

Wrong forum.

I just got my blue this week. My white belt was an Ouano and it would come undone all the time. I got a Kaizen for my blue, and it stays on better than an Ouano, but the Ouano is thicker and seems sturdier. Both are dark blue. The Kaizen is only $10 and the Ouano is $18, but the Ouano seems like it would last longer.

Sorry, I was looking for my thread to see the replies and I realized it was in the reviews and not the general discussion area. Mods, please move so I'm no longer in the wrong forum AND more people can contribute. Sorry again.

Here's a picture of my WAR blue belt. If youre looking for dark, then then one isn't for you. From what I have seen, the keiko raca blue belt is the darkest.

I LOVED my HCK blue belt! Durable, but not crazy thick like some. It did fade a bit over time, but it's still darker. One thing a really like about HCK belts is how they stick in the black bar. Not exactly sure why they added the white at the end though, people thought I had six stripes sometimes.

Gameness belts are darker too and so are Fuji BJJ belts.

the WAR belts are made of kimono material, right? I'm considering getting one whenever I get my bluebelt (far from now, lol)
