FROM OUT OF THE BOX…
When professional baseball player, Kenshin Kawakami, was struggling with a lingering back injury, he sought relief by wearing a compression wrap beneath his uniform belt. This gave him some much-needed back support, but got in the way of his pitching motion. He knew there had to be a better solution.
Kawakami, along with and our founder, Taka Yokoi, began collaborating on a training belt that could provide core support without inhibiting movement. Through this partnership, and a lot of trial and error, the Core Energy Belt was created.
