Yup, that's a $295 set of armour all right. If your budget is really that low, try here: http://www.bogubag.com/Bogu/Specials/bogu_specials.html

Hmm, I've never seen bogu like that. The tsuki and kote looked they were covered with black vinyl?

[Neil Gendzwill]

Yup, cheapest of the cheap Taiwanese bogu. Those kote tear really easily.

Hello,
Hey, I could use a cheap target...
Thanks,

[Hai_hai]

Cheapest of the cheap. Thank you for the input. I still do not have bogu but don't know the difference between crap and top quality bogu. Slowly I am getting more information.

Waaay back I had a set with Vinyl kote - I found that gaffer tape did an excellent job of strengthening them ;-)

[KATSUJIN]

oh well...i think kendoshop.com bogu has pretty good value for money goods......

[LNGUYEN]

Any one here saw or used the bogubag special deal bogu $350.00 (gz-17)? How is it, I need to know real bad.

Nguyen, I have not seen that set, but I will say everything I have seen from bogubag.com is quality equipment. They have great prices and Robert Stroud is extremely helpful. Kendoshop also has good equipment for very cheap. But if you have a problem their service is shyte.
