This is a Nagoya obi designed by Yasuhiro Senchi, also known for his design of the Tokyo Olympic uniforms. I purchased and had it tailored a few years ago, but my tastes have changed and I haven't had a chance to wear it, so I'm putting it up for sale. The colors are refreshing and it's very lightweight. I think it will be easy to tie. I haven't tried tying it, so there are no creases. You can wear it in all seasons except for the height of summer. The beautiful accent colors are lovely in early summer and also in the colder months. Please understand that this item has been stored at home... Material: Silk
