Approved Uniform

Only Approved Suppliers are permitted to supply uniforms (do bok) within New Zealand with the International Taekwon-Do registered logo.

It is the responsibility of the instructor to ensure that their members are dressed in the appropriate do bok and that their students clearly know the expectations in regards to the do bok’s appearance and up-keep. The do bok is not merely a set of comfortable clothes that we wear to train in, but is steeped in thousands of years of Korean tradition and culture. Therefore, like the do jang it should be held in high regard and treated with respect.

There are now many competing do bok suppliers dealing with ITFNZ and its members. This is healthy and hopefully enables members to get the best value for money.

When choosing a do bok, it is paramount that it meets all of the requirements as outlined in the Standards of Dress for training below.
 


Do-bok Regulations

 
The fist symbol is to be used by itself on the do bok, either embroided directly onto the uniform or sewing on an existing badge provided.   The official ITF tree is screen printed in black
only on the reverse of the do bok.
