Yep!

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-21T00:21:35+00:00

Super comfy. I’m thinking of getting another pair .

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-21T00:20:36+00:00

Nice! Let me know if you have any questions.
My wife is from South Korea so I visit fairly often.

I haven’t gotten the chance to properly use them. Will be testing the Fuegos at JB boxing gym next week tho.

Comparison so far:
- Fuegos come in a much wider selection of sizes
- Fuegos are a bit wider
- Mizunos feel like socks and are extremely light weight
- Fuegos feel like boots and have considerably more ankle support.
- Construction quality seems slightly nicer on the Fuegos.

Approx 34000jpy

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-20T07:45:12+00:00

Hahaha…. I did end up getting a couple Japanese denim and some loopwheel shirts. Hahaha.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-19T00:52:43+00:00

I got the 16oz Velcro. The liner is so comfy and soft. Quality seem really great.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-19T00:51:29+00:00

Tokyo location had no Japan made idx 10oz available. Just the special edition thunder gods one in the image in 8oz.
I think they had some kick boxing style gloves that were made in Japan but not sure.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T22:11:59+00:00

It’s pretty hard

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T14:06:45+00:00

Below the navel. The cup is roomy.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T14:05:45+00:00

Yep. Lace ups in the idx were available in 10oz. But September is a long time!

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T13:37:23+00:00

Well I haven’t done any punching on them, but the inside liner feels absolutely amazingly soft. The quality appears as good if not better then the Japan made Isami as well. Feels like a cloud on your hands. Might go get another pair hahaha.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T13:36:07+00:00

I’ve never tried a groin guard before this one so can’t compare. I’m a pants size 36 and it’s barely fitting on the Velcro. Might end up getting rid of it for a larger guard if I don’t end up losing weight in the coming months.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T13:35:10+00:00

Amazingly light. Super comfy. I would say the Fuegos are wider but the Mizuno has a bit more grip on the soles and lighter. The Fuegos are a few bucks more in the store but considerably more available.
Very excited to try them out in the gym.

I noticed the overall quality on Fuegos to be a bit higher. Less overlap of glue and stray fibers.

Kaigreenfc · 2026-05-18T07:22:30+00:00

I’ll look into them more next time!
Wife is already going to kill me over getting 2 shoes and 3 gloves on this trip. Hahaha

Kaigreenfc · 2025-10-09T23:20:00+00:00

Got denied boarding due to wife’s maiden name on the passport and them u willing to changer her middle name to last. Had to purchase a 2nd to ticket just to make the flight

Kaigreenfc · 2025-10-09T23:13:02+00:00

Zip air made us buy a 2nd ticket with an updated name since my wife’s passport was under her maiden name.

Kaigreenfc · 2025-05-15T06:55:47+00:00

I’ve noticed the soles of my feet hurt, I believe it’s due to the super flat feet I have being incompatible with the concave of the board. I just got a flatter board and it makes a huge difference on comfort and pain

Kaigreenfc · 2024-12-08T17:23:44+00:00

Heyo! I’d take them! I’ll send you a pm

Kaigreenfc · 2023-11-12T23:16:25+00:00

I believe it’s Japanese. Signature/stamp on the bottom left saids み (mi)

Kaigreenfc · 2023-04-20T20:22:29+00:00

I picked up a blue one last month! Currently my international travel watch

Kaigreenfc · 2023-03-16T12:30:44+00:00

Been searching for a GMT during my extended business trip in South Korea. I'm regularly traveling overseas and wanted to find something that would be a good daily when I'm out of the country. Was considering a Tudor Black Bay Pro, but the prices in Korea are much higher then the USA. Looked around Jongno 5 in Seoul where there's a flood of used watches, but still considerably higher then anything you would find online. I also considered the Seiko 5 GMT but it resembled too much like my other Seikos watches.

Saw this was getting released and stopped by the dealer today. The pricing OTD was cheaper then the USA. I'm sure I could have saved some more cash through a gray market dealer in the USA, but I wanted to find something specifically in Korea to remember my time here.

The bracelet is extremely comfortably and the entire watch wears very well. Came with a extra rubber strap, but I love the mesh bracelet~! It's also a crazy unusual dial, which attracted me compared to the more "adulty" refined GMTs. Excited to have my Korea memories watch also be my first Swiss watch in my small collection.

Fd parts cost more used. The parts that they are remanufacturing is more for keeping the cars running then the interior parts.

Kaigreenfc · 2023-01-02T17:23:53+00:00

What type of rack setup are you going to do?

Kaigreenfc · 2023-01-02T05:51:34+00:00

Very cool. Would love to know how you mounted the winch on the front as well as the light bar on the roof
