- A man’s, Naga-Juban kimono, with fabulous senmen (the paper part of folding fans) scroll and parchment designs and Fujiyama (Mount Fuji) in clouds design on the back. Mount Fuji is a symbol of endurance and the forge of creativity. The tiger, being a symbol of protection, wards off evil spirits and bad luck.
- With traditional, raw ended, dark han-eri (removable collar, usually loosely stitched on and regularly replaced)
- Synthetic silk. The Japanese excel at making synthetic silks. It has the added bonus of being hand washable
- Made and bought in Japan
- The Japanese take great pains to store their traditional garments with the utmost care, which is why they stay in such exceptional condition. Some of my Japanese garments have large, white stitching (shitsuke) round the edges. The Japanese put these stitches in to keep the edges flat during long periods of storage, these stitches just get pulled out before wearing the garment
- To wear a kimono closed, you also need a tie belt/sash/obi of some kind. These are always bought separately
- Please be aware that different monitors display colour slightly differently. Therefore the colour in the photos and description is a guide only

Japanese clothing is usually of adjustable fit, being mostly wrap-over or tie-to-fit items, so most garments fit a range of sizes. Because of this (and only really knowing my own size anyway) I can't really advise anyone on the fit. Please judge from the measurements given
