Ju Jitsu was developed in the 16th century as a method for training soldiers in hand to hand combat. Close combat made the weapons Japanese soldiers had traditionally used ineffective, and the heavy armour soldiers used to protect themselves added to the difficulty. 16th century Japan may seem far removed from the English county of Cheshire, but as martial arts developed away from the military arena the positive results of learning Ju Jitsu made it popular worldwide, and with people from all walks of life.

Our designers quickly drew up some draft designs detailing which colours and threads would work best for his design concepts. David was delighted with the suggestions and production on the Cheshire Budo Federation badges started immediately.

When David received his first batch of embroidered badges he contacted us and ordered another batch straight away. Since his initial order David has returned to us multiple times and we are proud to have made multiple designs for The Cheshire Budo Federation over the last few years. David has told us on several occasions that he is happy to recommend us to anyone who needs embroidered badges.
