In **Chapter 197** of the manga, Hitoshi Shinso use the same cloth-type
capturing weapon that Shota Aizawa uses. Is there any reason why Aizawa and
Shinso use the same type of capturing weapon? Were these given to Shinso by
Aizawa?

**Is there any reason why Shota Aizawa and Hitoshi Shinso use the same
clothes?** Heroes have the option to use support items. [Since he was trained
by Aizawa](https://bokunoheroacademia.fandom.com/wiki/Hitoshi_Shinso), he was
taught of the same techniques Aizawa used for Binding Cloth. Remember that
Shinso's quirk is easily countered by his opponent not answering him so using
a Binding Cloth would supplement for his lack of a counter-attack if ever this
happens. It's the only ability he has that's close to an offensive-type and
that can directly harm his opponents.

Same is true for Aizawa. Without the cloth, sure he can cancel out quirks but
the opponent can still move. Hence, both use the same cloth to aid them in
situations where their quirks (Brainwashing and Erasure) would be useless.

**Were these clothes given to Hitoshi Shinso by Shota Aizawa?** I'm not sure
if it was ever mentioned directly that it was given to him but Shinso was
trained by Aizawa, as briefly seen from a flashback in **Chapter 214**. It's
possible it was and also, that he was taught by Aizawa how since he was able
to use it, as seen in **Chapter 197**.
