Budo Brothers Reviews

They sent me the wrong size, which was frustrating. I had to email them a couple of times before getting it sorted out.

This just didn’t feel right in my hand. The weight and balance are off, and it feels way too front-heavy to be comfortable for training. On top of that, it kind of works when it wants to, which makes it even more frustrating. Disappointed with it overall.

It feels really solid and well put together, at least for what I needed it for. The stitching could be a little cleaner in a few spots, but overall I’m happy with the craftsmanship

I do like the products, so I was excited to browse, but the website was just not the easiest for me to use. Pages loaded slowly on my phone, and moving around felt clunkier than I expected.

The menus were a little confusing too, and I ended up clicking around way more than I should have just to find basic things. The filters didn’t really help much either, so it made shopping feel more annoying than it needed to be.

Checkout worked out fine in the end, but the whole experience just felt harder than it should’ve been. I’d still shop there, but I really hope they clean up the site a bit...

The drills were helpful and I did feel like they added something to my training, but I guess I expected a bit more. There’s something about it that’s decent, just not amazing. Overall, it’s fine and still useful.

I really wanted to like budobrothers.com, but the prices felt a bit too high to me. After checking a few other places, it seemed like a lot of the items were marked up more than I expected, so it was hard to feel good about ordering. The quality might be fine, but for the cost, I didn’t feel like the value was really there. I also expected a faster response when I had questions, which made the whole experience a little more frustrating. Overall, it just came across as overpriced.

Paid too much. Feels basic. Not worth it.

I bought this from budobrothers.com thinking it would hold up for a while, but after just a few weeks of normal use it started coming apart. My brother even noticed the stitching looked a little rough when I first got it, and he was right.
I really wasn't doing anything intense with it either, so it was disappointing to see the material loosen up so quickly. For the price, I expected better quality, and I probably wouldn't buy it again

I ordered this from overseas the delivery took way longer than I expected. The tracking barely updated, so I was mostly just guessing where it was the whole time. Support did reply, which I guess is something, but they weren’t exactly helpful. The product itself was fine once it finally showed up, so credit where it’s due, it’s nice that the item was decent enough to almost make the annoying shipping process feel worth it

I got it faster than I expected, which was a nice surprise. Maybe it’s just me, but quick shipping always makes the whole experience feel better, you know?

I wanted to like these, and they seem sturdy overall, but the grip just didn’t feel right in my hand. It was a bit rough and started feeling awkward after only a few minutes of use. Maybe it works better for someone else, but for me it got uncomfortable quickly and I don’t really see myself reaching for them again.

The website looks dated and feels cluttered, which makes it hard to enjoy browsing. I also expected the instructions and navigation to be clearer, since it wasn’t always obvious where to go or what to do next

I had a small issue with my order, so I reached out to their support team. It took a bit longer than I was expecting, I think, but they did get back to me and sorted it out without making it complicated. They were friendly and actually helpful, so overall I’m happy with how it turned out.

The items looked fine and I was pretty much ready to buy, but once I got to checkout and saw the shipping cost, it kind of ruined it for me. It felt way too high for what I was ordering. I also felt a bit passed around trying to figure out if there were cheaper shipping options, which made it more frustrating. Wish they offered more reasonable choices.

I usually end up ordering from Budo Brothers because they actually have most of the gear I’m looking for in stock. Sometimes it feels like I’m trapped choosing between sites that are sold out or sketchy, so it’s a relief when I can find what I need here. A couple colors and sizes were unavailable, but it was clearly shown on the site, so I wasn’t surprised at checkout.

Shipping was normal, and everything I received matched what I ordered. I’d probably give it 5 stars if restocks happened a little faster, but overall I’m happy with the experience and will likely keep using them.

The item itself seemed decent enough, but the way it was packed was disappointing. My order arrived in a thin box with barely any padding, and one side of the box was crushed. The product was basically sliding around loose inside.

For the price, I was expecting a little more care with the packaging. It didn’t totally ruin the item, which was a relief, but it still made the whole experience feel a bit careless. Not sure I’d order it again

I actually liked the gear itself, so this wasn’t one of those situations where I was unhappy with the product or anything. The issue was mostly the exchange process. I just needed a different size, which I assumed would be simple, but the instructions weren’t as clear as I expected. I kept feeling like I had missed a step or clicked the wrong thing, and I ended up going back and forth a bit just to figure out what I was supposed to do next.

By the time I factored in shipping it back, waiting for everything to be processed, and just the general hassle of it all, it started to feel like more trouble than it was worth. Maybe there was an easier way to handle it and I just didn’t find it, but from my experience, returns and exchanges could definitely be smoother. If the gear fits the first time, great, but if you need to swap sizes, just be prepared for it to take a little patience.

I ordered from budobrothers.com and felt a bit let down once the item arrived. It looked really nice in the photos, so I was expecting something sturdier, but in person the material felt cheaper than I hoped. The stitching wasn’t terrible, but it also didn’t give me a lot of confidence that it would hold up well with regular use. Shipping was totally fine, so no complaints there, but for the price I just expected better quality. I was really excited to get it, so it was disappointing to feel like it didn’t live up to what I had pictured.

I had a question about my order and, to be fair, they got back to me quicker than I thought they would. It wasn’t like an instant response or anything, which was a little annoying at first, but the answer made sense and fixed what I needed. Overall, I was pleased with the service provided. Yeah, 4 stars feels about right.

It feels okay overall, and for my own use, the safety seems mostly fine. I wouldn’t say it completely puts my mind at ease, but I haven’t had any major issues with it so far.
