Japanese traditional blue obi belt in polyester, OBI, Made in Japan
An obi (帯) is a belt used to close traditional Japanese clothing, such as kimonos or training clothing for martial arts.
By tradition, we do not wear any jewelry with a kimono, this is why the obis are well decorated and so colorful, they must cut with the kimono, while being in harmony with it.
It comes in the form of a fabric ribbon without loop or clasp or a hemp rope. How to tie the obi is quite an art.
Mixed Obi knot: Kai no Kuchi
It has the advantage of being a mixed knot - therefore for both men and women - and of being very easy to achieve with a narrow Obi.
