Japanese Yukata Kimono Robe Obi Belt Mens White Japan Anime Hitotoki Mt.Fuji

This is going to be a long review, so bear with me. I placed this order on the 25th of December just a few minutes before midnight with the ridiculous thought that this item included a Yukata Kimono. Looking back on that thought, I realised I wasn't thinking straight; nobody can sell a good kimono with a great obi from Japan for less than $40. Four days later, I arrive home from a very short and easy day of work seeing the package already arrived. I thought foolishly, "They sent me a Yukata and Obi for $40 in days?" This excitement instinctively turned into frustration when I saw there was no Yukata. After a few deep breaths, I calmed down, looked up my purchase, and discovered that this purchase was for an Obi with no Yukata. From that discovery, I felt a lot better. My mind quickly turned from "I was cheated out of a bargain kimono" to "I just bought a high-quality Kakuobi". Yes, it does say in the description that a Yukata Kimono does not come with this product. If you want a decent Yukata for a low price, you should expect it to cost at least $60 online. Now, back to the Kakuobi... This is a fantastic product for a fantastic price and it is indeed a product from Japan. My Obi arrived in a lightweight and very secure package. This package was sent to me in one of those large inner-padded yellow envelopes. When I opened the envelope, I pulled out the secured Obi. At this point, I had my pre-mentioned moment of frustration, but this problem was solved after I realised this product is a very high-quality Kakuobi. Included with my Kakuobi was an adorably handwritten note and an instruction sheet on how to actually put on a Kakuobi. The instruction sheet is well written and explains all the necessary details without making the instructions feel intimidating or complex, but you'll need to be able to read Japanese to actually read the instructions. If you can't read Japanese, do not worry because the 10 step instructions also have picture descriptions. For those who love Japanese culture and products, this is a great item to buy. One key piece of advice... I'd recommend not putting this in a dryer because it does say 100% Cotton. The package has instructions on how to clean this product, but they are in Japanese... I have no problem with it being in Japanese because I can read Kanji and Kana pretty well, but I can see why someone could get frustrated with the instructions if they couldn't read this language. Now, I am off to find a white Yukata Kimono.

I got mine in less than 2 weeks and it is awesome. It is straight from Japan by Japan post and is exactly like the image shows. The quality is superb hands down!!!! I know when I read reviews on items I feel if it doesn't get some criticism it must be the seller reviewing their item. I assure you I bought this and plan to purchase another for my older brother. We are both おたく/オタク and have 浴衣 for summer and when I saw this obi for this price I jumped on it. I know they are not cheap but neither are obis' in Japan.

I wanted a longer and more ornate belt for my yukata. This is exactly what I was looking for.

Nice quality Obi for upcoming Japanese festival.

Just like back home.

Just Know that this is a belt ONLY NOT the white Robe.

Great

Great all around!
