About Macho:
In 1980, 8th degree Tae Kwon Do black belt Grandmaster Soo Se Cho recognized a need for greater safety in martial arts training and competition. It was his passion. Armed with nearly 30 years of martial arts training and teaching experience from Korea to Turkey to the U.S., Master Cho designed Macho’s original line of martial arts sparring gear, enlisting his own taekwondo students to try out his latest advances and improvements. We did and we kicked butt.
The need for safety in martial arts sparring competition was a driving force for further innovation. As Macho grew, we kept Master Cho’s vision of integrity for quality improvements and became the prime innovator in the martial arts gear and martial arts equipment manufacturing and supply field.
The company’s first innovation came with the ear release canal. This patented product protects martial artists by decreasing the risk of damage to the eardrum from inappropriate strikes that can drive air into the ear canal. With our persistent focus on quality and safety, our innovations continue, setting industry standards worldwide. We at Macho proudly remain at the cutting edge when it comes to excellence in martial arts supplies and martial arts equipment.
