Takegakure (竹葉隠れの里, Takegakure no Sato; Literally meaning "Village Hidden by Bamboo") is the current shinobi village of the Land of Whirlpools and was founded by the Kumade clan. As the successor of Uzushiogakure it houses strong fūinjutsu, though nowhere near as powerful as Uzushiogakure's. Their leader is known as the Kinshō. There has only been one official Kinshō. The village shares the same style of clothing from Konohagakure. As evidenced by an abundance of swirl patterns and green flak jackets. They updated their flak jackets alongside Konohagakure after the Fourth Shinobi World War.
