Red & Square White Panel Coral Belt — Embroidered
Honor your senior mastery with the distinctive Kataaro Red Coral Panel Belt with Square White Panels, embelished with custom embroidery to permanently record your rank, title, and legacy. Inspired by the bold, unmistakable pattern of the coral snake, this striking panel design—often grouped within the broader family of kohaku obi—is sometimes worn by Isshin-Ryu and Kyokushin practitioners to signify advanced master ranks such as 7th dan (shichidan) and 8th dan (hachidan). In Japanese and Okinawan Karate systems, coral-style belts may also be associated with 6th dan (rokudan) and 7th dan, as well as senior instructional titles including Kyoshi and Master Instructor.
Each belt is hand-crafted to order, featuring vivid red panels measuring approximately 9 to 12 inches, separated by bold square white panels that echo the iconic coral snake pattern. The belt is constructed using a durable 8 oz. poly/cotton twill outer fabric and structured with a double layer of 100% cotton webbing core, providing excellent strength, a secure knot, and a commanding presence. Color-matched thread and expertly executed maze-pattern stitching complete each panel for a clean, balanced, and prestigious finish.
Custom embroidery is carefully placed—typically on the red end panels—to preserve the traditional visual balance of the design. Personalize your belt with your name, rank, title, organization, or an inspiring phrase, and optionally include a school logo or custom artwork. Honor your decades of discipline, leadership, and contribution to the martial arts with a deluxe Kataaro belt.
