Every year, the NYC Karatedō Championship Tournament produces one very limited shirt design. These shirts are only available to competitors: they are not for sale to spectators and once the competition is over, cannot be purchased.
Over the years, these shirts have become very prized collector's items and incredibly powerful badges of accomplishment and strong spirit. We're proud of every man and woman, boy and girl, who has one of these shirts. Every single one of them was earned.
The 2026 Edition
This year, we're proud to announce a new design featuring the karatedō concept of fudoshin (here's an article on the concept), the immovable mind.
Here's a look at the new shirt:




Orders for the shirt will be available for pickup about two weeks after the tournament's conclusion (shipping is available for competitors not local to New York City).
