Authentic Vintage Japanese Men's Hand-Tailored Yukata Kimono Robe
Up for sale is a beautiful, true vintage Japanese casual men's yukata robe. It is entirely hand-tailored from a premium, breathable summer-weight cotton textile featuring a traditional geometric repeating grid pattern in classic shades of indigo and light blue.
100% Hand-Tailored: Features visible hand-sewn interior assembly and basting stitches along the seams and inner collar.
Shoulder panel: Includes the traditional unbleached cotton muslin reinforcement panels (era-ura) across in the inner upper back and buttocks area.
Included accessory: Comes complete with an authentic, traditional woven white cotton koshihimo waist tie belt so it is ready to wear.
Versatile style: Classic closed-sleeve men's cut works perfectly as a high-end unisex casual lounge robe or dressing gown.
Excellent vintage condition with strong seam integrity and vibrant outer fabric. The interior unbleached cotton shoulder lining shows some minor, faint age-patina yellowing/spotting along the inner seams from long-term storage. This is not visible when worn. Each underarm has a small dime-sized opening. Not sure if that was intentional.
