Try Eosin Panther. We ordered a custom belt as a gift for our sensei, and it turned out great; he really likes it and has been wearing it for the past two years, and it looks like new today.

Nike makes a nice black belt-sort of like Tokaido in terms of width (1.75 inch) and thickness, but much less expensive.

Best/Sang Moo Sa also has a quality belt-and you can get either the Nike or Sang Moo Sa belt with embroidery through Best Martial Arts Supply. Here's a link:

I've heard that Eosin Panther makes a great quality belt. Like Toakido, but cheaper. Miles, I believe you that Nike's belt is good. But w/ that logo on it, I couldn't wear it. IMO, certain things shouldn't have a ubiquitous logo on it.

:) IcemanSK, you can remove the label and still have a good belt.

I kind of like the Nike punchline, especially as an instructor (and parent): "Just do it."

Thanks Miles!
I'd forgotten that E-W was the distributor for Bear. I grew up in the Chicago 'burbs. My buddies & I used to make the trip there often. Too bad they don't have a website.
