Materials<\/h4>\n

The main differences in the grip tape are the materials used. The strap can be made of cotton, silk, leather or synthetic materials.
\nWhen selecting the material, attention should be paid to the type of use of the sword:
\nSynthetic materials are often inexpensive and still look classy. However, they absorb sweat less well than natural materials.<\/p>\n

Colours<\/h4>\n

There are no limits to the choice of colour. The grip tapes can be produced in all colours. As a rule, we use a grip tape in a harmonious colour scheme for the Sageo<\/a>\u00a0used.
\nIt tends to make more sense to use darker-coloured grip tapes for swords for practical use. Soiling can be seen more quickly on light-coloured materials.<\/p>\n
