  • Publication number: 20130152278
    Abstract: A martial arts belt includes a belt and a pair of Velcro fastener assemblies. The belt is long enough to encircle the waist of a student and is sized to fit around a user's twice and to leave enough length to tie a traditional martial arts knot in order to form an inner loop and an outer loop. Each Velcro fastener assembly includes a loop fastener and a hook fastener. Each loop fastener is attached to one of the external sides of the inner loops of the belt and each hook fastener is attached to one of the internal sides of the outer loops of the belt side so that each loop fastener is aligned with one of the hook fasteners.
