Tabi - Make your Tabi more comfortable-

Hi! This is Natsu!
(And there will be many wrinkles on Tabi.)
I would like to lessen them.


I would like to show you how I make my Tabi more comfortable for myself.
When I open new Tabi, I will form the Tabi for myself as follows.


1. When I open new Tabi,

2. wearing them, feel slightly tight.

3. Wearing them and soak your tabi (as wearing Tabi)




4. Remaining their shape, take off your Tabi.




5. Dry the Tabi remaining their shape.

New Obi Line ups

We added 11 new Obi for men.
right two have five colours. This series is recommendable for casual wears.
Middle two is grey and black, we have other four colors in this series. Simple coloured Obi, but have pattern woven. Very gorgeous obi. They might be good with bit formal ones.

The last one is the new color of our cotton Kenjou-obi. Beige one. Kenjou Obi is really recommendable because it is go with wide range of Kimono such as casual or formal.

How to wash (white) Tabi

	1. Here's washing net. I know hand washing is more recoomendable actually. So, I wash my Tabi by washing machine. I think washing-net keep the Tabi-clips away from hurting other laundry.
	2. If there are stains, use tooth brush and toothpaste (!!).  wash wash wash wash.
	3. But mostly I skip the brushing and use bleacher. For patterned Tabi and/or coloured Tabi, you should be check the bleacher's instruction. (Some of bleachers will bleach ALL PATTERNS AND COLOURS and change your lovely Tabi to pure white.
	4. Washing by machine : ) Of course, you can wash Tabi with other laundry. But just as same as ordinal laundry, you have to note when the laundry is including dark coloured ones. Separate washing is recommendable.
	****
	5. Finish I use hanging-drier (with clothespin) to dry. Please be noted to pinch "inside" of the Tabi. Because the clothespin's mark can be covered when clipping (wearing).

How to handle Aizome (Japanese Indigo) products

Our Aizome products are dyed authentic Japanese indigo "Ai". For the first few tiems, the colour comes off on everything touched with those products.
Stay the "Ai" colours, before wearing (and before discolouring to to others), we recommend you RINSE after you receive it.

1. Make the vinegar-water-solution
The best comparison is 1/5 vinegar for a water.
It might be a cup of vinegar to water of a wash-tub. or a bottle or two bottles of vinegar to 1/3 water of bath-tub.

2. Water the Aizome product in the tub for a night or two nights

3. Rinse it by soap-water (very thin soap water) one time or two.This soap is for remove smell of vinegar.

4. Rinse it by water a couple of times until the discolouring stop.

If you hate the smell of vinegar, we can recommend you rinse it by water without vinegar. In this case, we recommend you to rinse by pure water, not warm , and without soap.

PLEASE BE NOTED THAT BATH-TUB MAY STAINED BY AI-INDIGO. Kitchen bleach might work to remove it, but it might be depends on the material.
