Size: Length: 422cm Width: 30cm This is a fukuro obi (a type of formal obi) with a design of diamonds, geometric patterns, and plant motifs. This particular type of fukuro obi is for casual wear and does not contain gold or silver threads. The types of kimono it can be worn with are the same as casual Nagoya obi: komon, tsumugi, unpatterned iro-muji, and tsumugi homongi. The colors are yamabato (dove) color for the base and konoegaki (persimmon) color. It's a combination of a faded green and a rich orange. Recently, the opportunities to wear formal attire have decreased, and the chance to wear fukuro obi has also decreased. On the other hand, I've heard that the number of Nagoya obi fabrics has decreased in kimono shops, and fukuro obi are becoming the mainstream for casual wear. For example, even if the pattern is the same, fukuro obi are more expensive. This is natural because the length is different, and the amount of silk and the labor involved in weaving are greater. In an era when fewer people wear kimono, the price per customer must be increased, or the textile mills will go bankrupt to cope with rising prices. I digress, but fukuro obi are often forgotten how to tie, so if you have one for everyday use, it's also good for practicing how to tie it, so it's recommended even for those who only tie Nagoya obi. The condition is good, with no stains or damage, although there are some wrinkles from being tied on a torso (they are light wrinkles, and most will disappear during storage. If you are concerned, you can lightly spray with water and iron with a pressing cloth). ⭐︎ We list kimono and occasionally accessories around 9 pm every day.
