Sumo Boy Pullover

Sumo wrestling has been a part of Japanese culture for many thousands of years. The origins of the Japanese culture itself are said to have been established by a sumo battle that took place around 2500 years ago. This legend written in the ‘Kojiki’ describes how the possession of the Japanese islands was determined by a wrestling match between the gods Takemikazuchi and Takeminakata. Nowadays, sumo fighting is inspired in that battle.
