This is not true. The belt system started off as a white belt to symbol purity. And as dojo’s back in the day were outside the more you trained your belt started getting grass stains and when your belt was completely green you were a green belt. And after even more years of training your belt would get bloodied by combat practices and after long enough you would become a red belt. After years and years of training collecting all different kinds of stains, your belt would eventually be black…this is how the belt system came about.
