📅 Custom belts are handmade to order rather than pulled from stock. The estimated timeline is listed in the Pre-Order box directly under the Add to Cart button. When capacity allows, a rush upgrade is available at checkout to shorten that window. This upgrade must be selected when placing the order and cannot be added afterward. This lead time ensures our craftsmen have sufficient time to create your personalized belt with the attention to detail it deserves. Thanks for your understanding.
📧 Pre-order now and you'll receive the following email updates:
a provisional shipping estimate a few days after placing the order.
the precise shipping estimate when the item has moved through various stages of production.
door-to-door tracking once the order has shipped.
✅ Because these belts are made to order and unique, they cannot be returned or exchanged. So please make sure to double check all the details before completing your order. Once we start working on the belt, no changes will be accepted. All sales are final.

Description
Isami Navy Blue Belt: A Deeper Shade on the Rank Where the Real Work Starts
ChokeSports.com is the official international distributor of Isami belts, and the Navy Blue is our deep midnight-shade take on the traditional blue belt, marking the same point where training stops being about survival and starts being about building real skill. Whether you're closing in on your BJJ navy blue belt, your Karate navy blue belt, or your Judo navy blue belt, this is the belt that carries you there. Every belt is one-of-a-kind and made in Japan.
Three Firmness Models, Built for How You Actually Train
Choose your fit across three models, F-350, F-400, and F-700, from Slim & Soft to Thick & Stiff
Match your body type and grip with belt widths of 1.7" (42 mm), 1.8" (45 mm), or 2.0" (50 mm)
Add a rank bar in black or red to mark stripes or instructor status
No two practitioners train the same way, so Isami builds this belt in three models instead of one, Slim & Soft, Thin & Firm, and Thick & Stiff. This navy blue belt lineup is exclusive to ChokeSports.com, you won't find all three available anywhere else. If you like a belt that shows its history, Slim & Soft develops a visible patina as it wears in, a record of every session you put into it. Full details on each model, and what separates them, are below.
A Belt That Marks Where You Are in the Journey
Wear a rank that means something whether your path runs through BJJ, Karate, or Judo
Personalize every belt with embroidery, detailed further below
Get 10 standard sizes plus custom length for a fit that matches your frame
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the BJJ blue belt is where fundamentals turn into instinct, the first real test of whether the basics have actually sunk in, and the Navy Blue carries that same rank in a deeper, more distinctive shade. In Karate, the blue belt karate rank marks steady, visible progress on the way toward brown and black. In Judo, the Judo blue belt reflects the same milestone, real time on the mat translating into real ability. This belt looks different on everyone who wears it, some are chasing gold, some are chasing consistency, and this deeper shade is built for both. Ready to order your Isami Navy Blue Belt? ChokeSports.com has outfitted serious martial artists with authentic Isami belts since 2006.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mahir from Turkey "The quality of the belt is excellent, and the customization makes it very special. 100% recommended."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Peter from Slovenia "I am very impressed with the quality from the hands of the Japanese masters. Worth every penny :)"
🧵 CUSTOM EMBROIDERY
Personalize your new martial arts navy blue belt with beautiful embroideries in English and in Japanese. There are six fonts to choose from and 10 different colors. We reserve about 8in 20cm of each belt end for embroideries. Long text will be resized to fit within that space.
BELT FIRMNESS & EMBROIDERY
Isami belts now come in three firmness models, so you can match the belt to how you actually train. ➡️ F-350 is slim and soft, with a lightweight, "broken-in" feel from day one. We add the embroidery to the finished belt, so the stitching sits over the belt seams and the reverse side shows a visible trail. This is what we call "non-integrated embroidery." ➡️ F-400 is thin & firm, thinner than F-700 but with more structure than F-350. ➡️ F-700 is thick and stiff, built to hold its shape and take longer to break in than F-350 or F-400. Both F-400 and F-700 feature "integrated embroidery": we embroider the fabric first and then build the belt around it. There's no trail on the reverse side, and the belt stitch lines sit over the embroidery for a cleaner finish.
📏 BELT WIDTH: 42mm, 45mm or 50mm
Now you can choose how wide your Isami Navy Blue Belt should be. The standard belt width is 42mm (1.65in) but we also make two wider variations that are 45mm (1.80in) and 50mm (2in). This is especially popular with bigger fighters/instructors who need a belt that will match their large frame.
🚿 BELT WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
In Japan it is uncommon to wash the obi martial arts belt. However many of our international customers like to wash their belts. We recommend hand washing (with hand soap) and hang drying in the shade.
Please note that regular washing will accelerate the belt's aging process and might cause it to shrink further than estimated. It will still be functional and last for many years though.

I was excited to receive this Navy Blue belt, as I had ordered the regular blue belt but I had made the mistake of ordering the non-heavy version and the hue of blue wasn’t to my liking. I purchased a custom navy blue hoping it would be a nice deep blue, but my eyes see that it has a purple hue to it in certain lighting. As someone who respects the ranking system, not as a rule, but for those who have sacrificed their years to achieve purple belt, I cannot wear this to class as I feel like this would be disrespectful. It is unfortunate, as I was really looking forward to using this belt.

Ordered an A2 Navy Blue Belt for my wife. Christmas Present. Color received is basically Black/Purple. Totally unwearable. Complained and was offered a Discount Code worth $4.99 on my next order. Very Disappointed in Customer Service. Everyone at my Gym thought the Color was Dark Purple. As a Customer with an Isami GI, Rashgaurds and Belts. I can without a doubt say this will be my last order from this company.
Store owner replied:
Hello John. Thanks for the feedback. We are bummed that the color was not the same that's used at your gym. Our Navy Blue is indeed quite dark and this is the color tone that is widely used in Japan when it comes to midnight blue belts. It seems like you should have picked our standard blue belt instead.Best regards from the ChokeSports team.
