I’m Bob Roos, rigger, teacher, performer, and the person behind RopeMarks. I’ve been working with rope since 1999, and over the years I’ve become very particular about the materials and tools I use.

This shop is a collection of products I personally use, trust, or have selected because they serve a clear purpose in my own Kinbaku practice. Good rope and well-chosen gear should support the experience, not get in the way of it.

You’ll find Japanese jute rope, rope care, accessories and a small selection of specialist gear here. The range is intentionally limited. I’d rather offer a few things I know well than fill the shop with products simply because I can.

Ogawa and Nawaya jute rope selected for Kinbaku, with different diameters, finishes and handling characteristics.

Rope care, samples, cloths, tenugui and practical extras for preparing and maintaining your rope.

A small selection of specialist gear and RopeMarks merchandise beyond rope itself.
