@Stephen Brian I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
As a Japanese-American, I just wanted to say I appreciate the fact that you have clearly done your research. I loved your insights and spin on the noragi streetwear fashion. It gave me so many ideas and is exactly the kimono piece I was looking to fit into a modern wardrobe. Thank you!
Loving this new segment. So good that it teaches you just a little bit about the fashion itself and its roots. Also the fact that it concentrates on specific pieces is so useful to give a starting point for what kind of direction you wanna go if you're into the pieces shown - to find more and discover more!
Glad I found this channel. I love kimono and own several traditional kimono and yukata. I hardly ever wear them. What I really love are dochugi (short jackets that cross over in front like kimono) and machiyuki (long coats that have a low, square neckline.) I think they are acceptable as is but they are also easy to modify. Why pay big bucks for a silk shirt when you can have a top that is truly awesome? You can fold down the points on either side of the neckline of a michiyuki and easily create lapels with just a couple hidden stitches. The sleeves are easy to shorten and you don't even have to cut off the excess fabric. Just hide it in the sleeve. Funeral mofuku (all black) is not a problem either. Mofuku is an all black garment. Just take something mofuku and embellish it in a lighter contrasting color. Embroidery, patches, paint, even iron-ons (if the fabric can take the heat) are ways to de-mofuku something. I've seem someone take a mofuku kimono and turn it into a glamorous evening gown using fancy beadwork. It was stunning. She absolutely did not look like she was going to a funeral. Keep spreading the word about upstyling traditional Japanese clothing. Now if you could get guys to wear modern hakama pants I think that would be cool.
You are such a great inspiration. Because of you I realized that I should appreciate my own style especially my own culture. Its really hard to go against the bandwagon here in Philippines bc we copy and paste other countries style etc (based from my observation) there is nothing wrong with being different. Really grateful for making me realize that.
I bought two of these since I dont even have to change t shirts. I could just grab this and drape it over whatever I was wearing at the time, change to a cargo pants, and be on my way. These kimono coats are the best because it'll go any old tshirt you have depending on the color. I don't have much clothes but these kimono coats have pretty much turned all of my t shirts into streetwear. They're not expensive (I got two for $20 from an off brand!) and they're very comfy! They're great for non fashionable folks like me!
Very Dope!! & I appreciate you guys using my song in the video, thank you! Much respect for including a Nujabes track as well (rest in beats). Keep doing your thing and i'm looking forward to more in the future! One Love 💙✌️ *🎨☁️-Paint The Sky,Blew!!! 🎨☁*
Found you by happy accident. I loved the third noragi and since I already to sashiko I can see it becoming a well loved and mended garment in my wardrobe. Thanks for the heads up!
“Japan is old” That’s why they have a high population and great schooling, respect for others, mostly a healthy country, and they also have a low crime rate. (My argument makes no sense so just ignore it all together and appreciate how awesome Japan is)
Tbh i really like your channel and i came here because of streetwear fashion i mean ive been around youtube for looking a streetwear fashion inspiration but most of them r talkin about 4 hype brands and just wearing their hype clothes, is fashion about those 4 hype brands? Keep it up dude... You deserve to get more subscriber
Hi Reggie, I'm in Kyoto now and am heading to Osaka. I have been looking but I have been having trouble finding noragi (or noragi-like), similar to what you are showing here. I'm thinking United Arrows is not a budget friendly option... I checked out Harajuku Chicago in Kyoto and found a few vintage dogis (used for kendo) that were sweet but felt a bit too heavy. Where else can I look? Any ideas?
Hey, quick question. I have a kimono from Japan when my dad visited. It's black and silk with dragon embroidery on the back. Would it be disrespectful to layer it with a hoodie in an outfit? I want to make sure I'm not disrespecting the history of the garment. Thanks!
United Arrows had a great denim Kimono as part of last year's Gap x GQ collab, but I was too slow on the draw. The one in the vid looks great, I had a feeling it was UA before the brand was revealed!
love the show, just wondering I'm travelling to osaka, kyoto and Tokyo in March 2021, just wondering if there are any low key streetwear stores in those cities worth visiting (not looking for supreme or off white etc) and if there are any decent stores to buy Kimono's in those cities worth visiting.
hey i really like your video and style of moderating :) Im also really interested in the black kimono you are wearing. Do you have a link for me where i can buy it ?
Hey Reggie! I found this reversible neon green/blue tang suit top at a local thrift store. It fits really nice, but I wanted to know if this is okay to wear out in public? Upon observing it, the tang suit looks traditional.
Does anyone have links to any of the pieces Reggie is talking about? I'm looking for some noragi and I'd love one from UA or similar, but I can't find them on the Buyee link.
I dunno........those just don't look right when worn open. Do you have any examples of them worn fastened? There have got to be at least a few ways that works, since AFAIK, the Japanese do not wear them open. Also, i get that it's a summer coat, but why would one wear two layers of clothing-or any coat-in Japan's hot summers? Thanks for the vid!
Last summer in Dallas I saw a person wearing Japanese cloths. After that every once in a wile I see people dress in this fashion. I want to start doing the same but the $80 to $300 price points is too much.

I picked up a simple black noragi just a few days ago. Feels a little out of place where I live, but I dig it.

Hey Reggie,
Thanks again for giving me info on your noragi. Because of that, I've been making my own out of a two-layer gore tex.
We'd love to see it!
I'm thinking about wearing Áo dài in streetwear because that is part of my culture
You should! Anything works if you're confident
Vietnam traditional clothes don't get much attention You should do it!
Hell yea do it.
Very Dope!! & I appreciate you guys using my song in the video, thank you! Much respect for including a Nujabes track as well (rest in beats). Keep doing your thing and i'm looking forward to more in the future! One Love 💙✌️

I got one with a black one with a big print on the back and wear it over a white hoodie, it looks great!
This channel needs more exposure from the streetwear community.
I really like the fact you showed the kanji and style break down. Excellent segment
Reggie is my fashion idol
I also would like a noragi in yellow. It can be color gold ( I'm not talking shiny or metallic looking) or mustard. A nice casual but bold color.
Found you by happy accident. I loved the third noragi and since I already to sashiko I can see it becoming a well loved and mended garment in my wardrobe. Thanks for the heads up!
Quality information, background references, and material. Excellent video my brotha, keep it up.
Been waiting to find our about which kimono u had. Having a video on it is awesome.
Bro thanks, you've inspired me to get a kimono jacket, and I love it. Thanks for expanding my mind
thank you for making this video, i've been trying to look for more inspiration for more modern kimono fits
I have few in crop. Love it
“Japan is old” That’s why they have a high population and great schooling, respect for others, mostly a healthy country, and they also have a low crime rate. (My argument makes no sense so just ignore it all together and appreciate how awesome Japan is)
Not sure about the respect for others but yeah Japan is an interesting country :)
"great schooling"
would love to see more casual usage of kimono with longer sleeves, like haori...maybe even casual furisode?!
Reggie I need the info about the beaded necklaces you wore in this episode!!! They’re so dope and compliment the style of the noragi so well
Love this style and was curious how to put an outfit together this helped a bit.
Tbh i really like your channel and i came here because of streetwear fashion i mean ive been around youtube for looking a streetwear fashion inspiration but most of them r talkin about 4 hype brands and just wearing their hype clothes, is fashion about those 4 hype brands? Keep it up dude... You deserve to get more subscriber
Kudos to you, sir, for a fantastic and very informative video. Excellent presentation.

Where else can I look? Any ideas?
Love this look, and just ordered my first noragi online. This video was dope, thanks for the tips and hope to see more great content!
thanks for the inspirations, makes me more confidence to start my own clothing brand
i like your t-shirt by the way
Just wanted to drop a comment and say good choice of music. RIP Nujabes.
you got a new follower. just what i needed and looking for. thank you!
Hey, quick question. I have a kimono from Japan when my dad visited. It's black and silk with dragon embroidery on the back. Would it be disrespectful to layer it with a hoodie in an outfit? I want to make sure I'm not disrespecting the history of the garment. Thanks!
We're gonna talk about this BUT this is perfectly fine. You'll never disrespect the culture if you like it and you respect it.
United Arrows had a great denim Kimono as part of last year's Gap x GQ collab, but I was too slow on the draw. The one in the vid looks great, I had a feeling it was UA before the brand was revealed!
The black one can be worn for neat casual

Buying a kimono now
Do you guys now some cheap places to buy noragis from? I'm thinking about 60-100$.
love the show, just wondering I'm travelling to osaka, kyoto and Tokyo in March 2021, just wondering if there are any low key streetwear stores in those cities worth visiting (not looking for supreme or off white etc) and if there are any decent stores to buy Kimono's in those cities worth visiting.
Today China is wearing Hanfu!
I love Kimono style streetwear, too!
Why not both Mixed with NY Hip Hop fashion?!
Do you have tips on styling haori for a more casual look? The only western clothes i can pair are usually formal.

Hey Reggie! I found this reversible neon green/blue tang suit top at a local thrift store. It fits really nice, but I wanted to know if this is okay to wear out in public? Upon observing it, the tang suit looks traditional.
Direct link for the camo version?

Man I have been trying to find someone online stores but can't find anything that sell things like these
Next time I'm in Japan I am going to skateboard around Daikanyama blasting Nujabes to find you... see you in 9 months

Joey Levenson I was thinking the same during the whole video that logo is legendary
I need that black noragi. manye
Bro thanks for the info
I want that all black outfit please help me with links
I dunno........those just don't look right when worn open. Do you have any examples of them worn fastened? There have got to be at least a few ways that works, since AFAIK, the Japanese do not wear them open. Also, i get that it's a summer coat, but why would one wear two layers of clothing-or any coat-in Japan's hot summers? Thanks for the vid!
yo reggie, where to cop the tee man, i luvvvvvvv back to the future 🤙
Where can I buy this online
Got my eyes on these for a while but just got it recently and fell in love with these
Nujabes and kimonos!:))
BUT WHERE DO I COP THE BLACK ONE THOOOOO, THE SITE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO USE
Where’s the link for the black kimono bruh
To where can I find the noragi in the thumbnail.
Last summer in Dallas I saw a person wearing Japanese cloths. After that every once in a wile I see people dress in this fashion. I want to start doing the same but the $80 to $300 price points is too much.
I follow you . since your subscribe from few thousands. I just want say .it’s pleasure sir.
One year late ...but dope video🚀
