A dobok for learning taekwondo
Unlike judo, taekwondo involves actually striking an opponent. You're not allowed to grab their dobok, except in self-defence.
To give you the freedom of movement you need for your taekwondo moves, we've designed a loose-fitting dobok.
And because this dobok is for youngsters, it's made from a light, supple twill fabric weighing just 190 g/m²!
Which size of dobok should your child get?
You won't be surprised to learn that the right size of dobok (110 to 150 cm) depends on your child's height!
Our doboks are made from cotton and have a natural tendency to shrink a few centimetres during the first 3 washes.
That's why we suggest choosing a dobok that's 5 to 10 cm larger than your child's height.
For example: if your child is 1.35m tall, choose a 140 cm dobok.
Caring for your dobok
We suggest airing out your dobok after every use. To keep it white, be sure to wash it regularly. One pointer? Wash on a cold wash for the first few times. After that, you can wash it in temperatures up to 30°C.
When you dry it, it's best to let it air dry and avoid using the dryer.
