Hi, I still get questions on my youtube from the world, about men kimono lol
Here’re the questions and answers 🙂
Q. Do you wear anything inside the first layer of kimono, because that is too layered
A. I know lol , you don’t have to wear inner shirt in Juban (the first layer) if it’s hot. when it’s cold, you should wear something inside. But don’t you wear inner shirt, normal shirt, sweater, jacket and coat when it’s cold? it’s like that 😉
Q. how do u wear this in summers ! is it not feel hot inside?? 3 parts :[
A. I wouldn’t wear this type of kimono in summer. That would be really hot. I wear only thin kimono, but without haori and juban. Or in a really casual situation, I wear yukata.
Q. Domo arigatogozaimashita. I am in Tokyo right now as a first time tourist. Your video is very helpful. Do you have any recommendations as to where the best place to buy kimonos? I am staying in Shinjuku area. Thanks.

Q. What is that people say 12 layer kimono?
A. 12-hitoe (12 layer kimono) is worn by noble women abut one thousand years ago. The current kimono was formed by people in all classes about 200 years ago. They are different from each other.
I hope you have a good kimono life 😀
