Your Move Chess Piece Deluxe Jujitsu Rank Belt
Make your next move count—then look for a better move.
The Chess Pieces Collaboration Deluxe Jujitsu Belt builds on a one-of-a-kind design featuring original artwork by renowned designer Meerkatsu. Blending the strategic depth of chess with the discipline and skill of Jiu-Jitsu, this upgraded belt delivers a commanding visual statement in the gym and at competitions.
Each rank color is paired with its own belt-wearing embroidered chess piece—Pawn, Knight, Rook, Bishop, Queen, or King—symbolizing progression through the art. Beneath each piece, the phrase “YOUR MOVE” is stitched as a reminder to carefully and deliberately choose your next.
Crafted for those who demand more, the Deluxe construction features a double core for added substance and structure, along with additional rows of stitching for enhanced durability and a more defined feel.
Customize your belt with optional embroidery, ½" rank stripes, or a ¾" instructor trim to reflect your individual journey and achievements.

Rank Note: The chess piece belt colors were decided based on proximity to the “King”. The chess piece starting positions are King, Queen, Bishop, Knight, Rook, and then Pawn in the front row. This corresponds to jujitsu belt ranking as Red, Black, Brown, Purple, Blue, and White, respectively. If you prefer the design belt color to correspond to the modern chess point value system of King=infinite, Queen=9, Rook=5, Bishop=3, Knight=3, and Pawn=1, you may request the color variation for the given chess piece.
