WHAT IS RIKISHI

力ノ士

Rikishi. A man of honor, carrying power.
In English, POWER GUY.
The name sumo wrestlers have carried for centuries became the name of this brand.

力POWER

A body forged by training, and nothing else. No excuses, no gear. Just power.

士GUY

A man of honor carries a way of life. Humble in victory, unbroken in defeat. That bearing is what makes a rikishi.

番RANK

The banzuke never lies. Only those who win, bout by bout, climb the ranks.
