Why We Love It
Our men’s vintage kimono are handcrafted in 100% silk. These kinagashi (着流し) kimono are made from one of two types of classic silk weaving: Tsumugi or Omeshi.
Tsumugi is handspun from silk threads of different lengths and thicknesses, resulting in a pleasing rustic texture. Omeshi is a smoother, glossier weave, that often features a dignified pattern.
Kinagashi kimono can be worn on any occasion, and are perfectly suited for everyday life.
