About our embroidery

Arawaza has a reputation in customized Japanese embroidery.  This very demanding and detailed work is done to perfection and your satisfaction is guaranteed.

We offer a low cost, high quality, precision STYLE and NAME embroidery service on any item of your choice.

Each job is carefully processed, the embroidery is over sewn so it will not come undone, and "layered" for a thick and luxurious appearance.

We can also have your name translated in Japanese. Others make mistakes when their non-English or French speakers, who are unfamiliar with English or French sounds, are asked to translate names into Japanese. Our translators are native Japanese speakers who have a great deal of experience with spoken and written English and French. Custom embroidery adds only 2-3 weeks to our regular express shipping service, but it's well worth the wait.

Being long time martial artists ourselves, we understand the hard work involved in becoming a black belt and the value that it carries.  We put every effort in making sure that your belt meets your highest expectations.

Our embroidered belts are the very best looking on the market. From 8 to 12 lines of stitching and high-quality base. They are embroidered right through (strengthening rather than weakening the belt) and leaving the design on the face of the belt free from black stitching over the embroidery.

* All Japanese characters are originally hand painted by a Japanese master of calligraphy and then digitized.

We offer:

• Japanese characters - Katakana and Kanji
• Regular alphabet
• Styles and associations (eg. J.K.A., Shotokan, Goju Ryu etc...)
• Japanese name translations - Guaranteed correct.
• Digitizing service
• Any logos, symbols etc...

Practitioners of all levels can also have the satisfaction of owning one of these beautiful belts. We can embroider to your precise specification in a color of your choice, on any color belt.

Embroidered with the name, style and rank they made the perfect gift that never goes out of style and that is more treasured the older it grows.

Katakana: We can embroider any word phonetically with Japanese Katakana characters. Kanji: Many custom designs can be created inexpensively by using our existing library of  digitized Kanji characters. For example, by combining INTERNATIONAL, TRADITIONAL, KARATE & FEDERATION you can create "I.T.K.F." Click here to see a few of available Kanji styles. Please contact us for additional kanji you might need. We can digitize for you any specific kanji, as per your request. Custom Services:  We can create almost any design you require and embroider it in a dazzling range of colors. Please call us to discuss your requirements. 1 800 563-6785
