Michi – silk men’s Kimono jacket with woven lining of Fuji scenery

A beautiful vintage find from Japan. This traditional men’s long Kimono jacket is handmade of a black silk fabric. It has a family crest (Kamon) printed on each chest, both sleeves and on the back. Handmade from shiny silk with an scene of a Japanese landscape, you will recognize the famous Fuji mountain! It is clearly inspired by the well-known works of Japan’s most famous woodcut artist Hiroshige. The lining is fully woven in silk threads, with a shiny golden brown background. This Kimono jacket is beautiful to wear inside out, or stylish in black. It is in a perfect condition, no imperfections! Michi is a Japanese male name which means ‘the righteous way’.

Kimonos for men are slightly different from those for women, they’re usually without pattern and mostly black. The lining, on the other hand, is always surprising and reveals a nice design or pattern. Wear it inside-out if you like! The sleeves of a men’s Kimono are attached to the Kimono, whereas the women’s Kimono sleeves are partly loose, they can swing around the body gracefully.

Off course men’s Kimono can also be worn by women, the shoulder width is slightly wider compared to the female Kimono/Haori. My model Leroy is 1.80 m tall and usually wears Medium or Large size. Any questions? Contact me!
