In capoeira, the cord is much more than a uniform detail: it is a symbol of identity, tradition, and evolution within the group. Each graduation brings a new color, a new meaning, and a new stage in the capoeirista's journey.
But for this symbol to be well represented, it is essential to choose the right cord, both in material and finish.
Why is cotton the best choice?
Cotton is the preferred material when we talk about capoeira cords. Besides being resistant and comfortable, it is perfect for dyeing, which allows for customizing the cord according to the group's graduations.
At Navita, we work with cords in the natural color of cotton, which is perfect for dyeing, and we also produce options in other colors, such as white, ideal for those who wish to start the personalization process from a lighter base.
Thus, each cord can be adapted to the colors and traditions of each capoeira school.
Braided WITH or WITHOUT core: which to choose?
Cords can be found in two models:
-
Braided Natural Cotton Cord with core - smooth and uniform and with core for dyeing and combing.
-
Braided Natural Cotton Cord without core - with a slight roughness and texture and without core.
Both can be dyed and customized, the most commonly used are the braided ones with core, maintaining resistance and comfort in use.
Most commonly used thicknesses for capoeira:
10mm
12mm
14mm
16mm
At Navita, we produce cotton ropes in all these thicknesses.
Conclusion
Choosing the right cord means valuing capoeira tradition while ensuring comfort and durability. Our cotton cords are the perfect base for dyeing, and the possibility of also working with white cords further expands the customization options.
👉 At Navita, you will find ideal cotton cords for dyeing, in different thicknesses and finishes, ready to represent each graduation with quality and respect for tradition.
