FAQ – Taekwondo Suits
What size Taekwondo suit should I buy?
Taekwondo suits are sized by height. For example, a person who is 170cm tall should consider a 170cm dobok. If in doubt, sizing up slightly ensures comfort and room for movement.
What’s the difference between ITF and WT Taekwondo uniforms?
While both federations typically follow a grading system that progresses from white belt through to black belt, the requirements for advancement may differ depending on the governing body’s rules and emphasis.
ITF uniforms often feature black trim on the jacket for higher belt levels, whereas this detail is less commonly seen in WT (formerly WTF) uniforms.
WT uniforms tend to have a cleaner, more minimal appearance, usually without stripes, placing emphasis on a simple and streamlined design.
Is a Taekwondo belt included with the suit?
Some suits include the belt, but not all. Always check the individual product description to confirm
Can I use my Taekwondo suit for competitions?
Yes — many of our Taekwondo suits are suitable for both training and grading competitions. For official federation events, make sure the suit style matches your governing body’s requirements.
How quickly will my dobok be delivered?

Can I return or exchange my Taekwondo suit if the size is wrong?

Taekwondo Suit Buying Guide – How to Choose the Right Dobok
Taekwondo Suit Terminology (Dobok Basics)
In Taekwondo, the uniform is called a dobok. Most Taekwondo suits consist of:
✔ Jacket
✔ Trousers
✔ Belt (not always included)
Unlike Karate and Judo, Taekwondo jackets typically wrap cross-over style or sometimes V-neck (depending on ITF vs WT style).
How Should a Taekwondo Suit Fit?
A good Taekwondo suit should:
✔ Allow full range of movement (kicks, stretches, turns)
✔ Have sleeves that finish just above the wrist
✔ Have trousers that allow easy kicking
✔ Not be tight in shoulders or crotch
Taekwondo suits are usually sized by height in centimetres. If between sizes, consider sizing up slightly to allow growth and comfort.
ITF vs WT Style Taekwondo Suits
There are two common styles:
ITF (International Taekwon-Do Federation):
Often cross-over jacket with belt.
WT (World Taekwondo):
Often a V-neck jacket style.
If you train in a specific federation or club style, check with your instructor before purchasing — different clubs prefer different cuts.
What’s Included and Belt Considerations
Some Taekwondo suits include the belt, others do not.
Always check the product’s description.
Belts represent rank, so you may already have one from your club or previous grading.
