This listing is for an indigo-dyed man's kimono featuring three komon (family crests) called maru ni juji (Circle with Cross). This motif is often associated with strength, protection, and clarity of purpose.

The three crests indicate that this would be appropriate for a semi-formal occasion where the wearer was to represent his family.

The fabric is lightweight-yet-sturdy cotton, giving a breathable and comfortable drape. The deep blue indigo has softened with age to a refined, smoky blue hue.

Watch the video below about the indigo dyeing process.
