Description

This listing is for a man's vintage Japanese summer cotton kimono - called a yukata. They are casual, unlined, and worn for summer festivals or as lounging robes inside the home. They're also often offered to guests in Japanese inns and hotels.

This yukata layers the traditional blue and white combination with a gray grid that results in interesting geometric designs that overlap and create additional geomentrics. Note the manji element - similar to a swastika but an honored symbol in the Buddhist tradition - as the connecting point for all of the blue grid lines. The pattern is also called a "lightening" design in Japanese motifs.

We offer simple cotton sashes we sew from contemporary fabrics that work well with yukata. You can add one for $15 when you order this yukata (see options).
