Hougetsu Ibushi 4 Fingers (Custom-order)

  • 4fingers

Hogetsu is Asahi Kyugu's original premium glove.

Smoked leather becomes resistant to moisture such as sweat, making this Yugake a lifelong tool that becomes an irreplaceable part of your practice.
The thickest and strongest part of the leather is positioned on the ring finger, where the load is greatest, ensuring a superior finish.

To enhance durability, we use thicker leather for the ring finger section than for the main body.
The hikae (wrist support) is also shaped for easy torikake, and by using it without gripping too hard, you can continue to draw without the glove losing its shape.

It is sewn with silk thread, which is gentle on the leather and causes minimal strain.
The transition between the twisted leather (hineri-gawa) and the index finger is shaped to fit the fork of the hand perfectly, preventing the nock from slipping.

Once worn, it fits the hand so well that there is no sagging or wrinkling of the leather.
You will experience a remarkably smooth touch and a lightweight feel.

How to order a KAKE (glove)

Scan Instructions

We determine the appropriate kake (archery glove) size based on a copy of the customer’s hand shape, using actual hand dimensions and reference measurement charts.

The most recommended method is to scan your right hand using a color scanner.

When scanning your hand, please follow these instructions carefully:

  • Place a ruler on the left side of your right hand for scale
  • Keep your right hand relaxed and slightly open, including about 5 cm below the wrist in the scan
  • Do not press your hand too firmly against the scanner
  • Avoid spreading your fingers too widely, especially the thumb
  • Ensure the outline of your hand is clearly visible and avoid any shadows
  • To reduce glare and shadows, it’s best to cover your hand with a white cloth during scanning to block light
