Fumetsu Kintsugi Range: Discover the Art of Timeless Restoration

At Fumetsu, we hold a deep sense of pride in our commitment to exceptional quality and groundbreaking designs. That's why we are thrilled to announce the long-awaited arrival of our remarkable Kintsugi Range, a collection that embodies our passion for innovation.


We've got all the combat essentials covered, from stylish fight shorts to sleek rash guards, and even gloves and more. It's a complete package designed to elevate your training experience and make you look like a true warrior.


But what exactly is Kintsugi, you may ask?


Kintsugi, translated as "golden joinery" or "golden repair," is a traditional Japanese art form that dates back to the 15th century. It involves repairing broken pottery by mending the shattered pieces with a special lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. Instead of hiding the cracks and imperfections, kintsugi celebrates them, emphasizing their significance as part of the object's history.


The repaired pottery is transformed into a unique and exquisite work of art, showcasing the beauty of resilience and embracing the philosophy of wabi-sabi - the acceptance of transience and imperfection.


In this blog, we will explore the significance of kintsugi and delve into the captivating colorways of black and red or black and gold.

Kintsugi Boxing Gloves

The gloves within the Fumetsu Kintsugi Range are more than mere protective gear.


They encapsulate the essence of kintsugi, illustrating how even the most broken parts can be transformed into something formidable.


The Black/Red or Black/Gold colour options remind fighters that their past struggles and injuries contribute to their growth and elevate their strength to new heights. So, next time you see those Black/Red or Black/Gold choices, remember that they're not just colors but symbols of resilience and triumph.
