THE STRIPE SYSTEM
What is the stripe system?
In taekwondo, stripes are earned — they represent progress, discipline, and commitment. TheStripesInMe™ is built around that same idea. Each tee in our collection represents a different stripe in your journey.
What does each stripe mean?
Stripe 001 — BEGIN. — The courage to take the first step.
Stripe 002 — STRIPES NOT GIVEN. — Nothing is handed to you. It’s earned.
Stripe 003 — EARNED. — The reward of sacrifice and dedication.
Stripe 004 — THE UNIFORM. — Identity, character, and values on and off the mat.
Are new stripes coming?
Yes. New stripes drop as the journey continues. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok @thestripesinme to stay updated.
