As my girlfriend is a traditional musician In Tokyo she has to wear a kimono a lot for performing and it never occurred to me how hard her kimono's are to put on or walk around.
As someone who loves kimono I agree, they can be very hard to keep on properly and wear properly. I know just enough about them to be able to dress myself and others in more casual styles, but I know I am doing things in an improper "cheating" way at times. I have hand sewn some small snaps into a couple of my kimono to help keep the fabric in place properly while I wear them. I cant walk in the proper way due to an injury so I had to find a reasonable solution to keep everything nice. These kimono you showed today are wonderful and perfect for beginners!
Very informative. I bought an old (1950-60s) kimono book from someone, in Japanese of course, and it has a lot of different traditional clothing including baby clothes. It helps me with sewing, as I am replacing the sewing on a huge stack of kimono and juban both antique(pre 1960) and vintage(pre 1980). I was so happy. I personally find learning and wearing kimono not that hard, but getting your dresser license is a whole different level.
I was looking in the same book carefully page by page, and there is a two piece ladies kimono that looks quite like the one you both showed, so this must have been an established thing already before the 1960s to have been included in the book.
I love wearing jinbei and samue! I tend to wear the top with a pair of leggings for errands / chores. They’re so comfy! Though, I’ve found that some of the jinbei have a scratchier weave for me - they can be a little itchy until softened with washing. The nibushiki lower half look like they’d be super cute as a wrap skirt by themselves too.
Everyone seem to be having so much fun. It's a joy to watch, and very informative. I didn't know there were this many different kinds of traditional Japanese clothing, and certainly not that it could be that easy to wear... then again, I tried putting on my sister's karate gi on once and couldn't figure out how to tie it...
Thank you for sharing the shops! Regarding your statement about dressing oneself in Kimono, I find myself in disagreement though. Yes, the exam takes five years, but in the exam you also learn ho to dress others and not only yourself and you learn how to wear formal and informal Kimono. One can learn how to dress oneself without having to take the exam and it would not take five years. Yes, you would need to practice and the more you practice, the faster you learn how to wear Kimono comfortably and correctly. I am learning how to improve my skills on dressing myself with a professional for about a year now and I need less than 15 minutes to dress myself with Juban, Kimono and Obi. My Kitsuke is not falling apart, I can easily move around and my obi is not hurting, although I have to admit, that my backs muscles are a little weak so my back hursts a little, but this is not only happening hen wearing Kimono. Anyay, I loved to finally see how a two-piece Kimono is put on and loved the camelia design on it. So thank you for this video!
To "western" eyes, all of them except the last and most colorful one looked like a Gi/dobak (karate uniforms). I like the Hakama (both legged & non-legged) for the bottom part, probably because of the mini series "Shogun", When it first aired I was in my teens and it made a big impact in my life

It was fun watching you try on your kimonos (and including NAGY!). They look very comfortable although clothes always seem to be more complicated for women vs for men. Does HARUMI keep any traditional Chinese clothing? CONGRATULATIONS on going over 200K subscribers!
The two piece kimono looks just as pretty as the traditional one! It would be nice to own one but it’s a tough choice on which one I would like to own. So far I only own haori and cosplays for anime that resemble Japanese clothing.
So nice to see Harumi and Kazu again! The jinbei and samue look really comfy.. But the nibushiki kimono got me! Easy to put on and it looks so pretty! I would love to have and wear one too 😊 ... And i would love to learn more about it, if there is story behind it 🤔
Sugoi! My mom and I love Japanese traditional clothes, and we watched many of your videos. They are really informative and entertaining. I didn't comment before because I watch the videos in PS4 and it doesn't have a comment option :c. Arigatou gozaimasu 🐱
my goodness I learned so many new things in your video, thank you very much ! I didn't know about all different names and types of Kimono varieties and alternatives , that don't take you hours to put on 😍😍 I defently recommend your channel to my friends 😇
Love the video Shogo-san! Looks like I'll be having a Jinbei soon XD. Any chance in exploring Taisho era Kimono/Fashion? They look cool/cute but still practical. Been trying to get one but unsure about its parts hehe
Harumi is so graceful and such a sweet and calming personality, she warms my heart, very maternal personality. Shogo your very teacher like but the type one would get excited to go to class for and very paternal. Hinata and Nagi are very lucky to have such wonderful parents and friends to grow in, 'cause your friends are very nice too 😊. Love your channel 😀.
I'm a 13 year old male and i had been wearing female kimono for about a year now.its not actually hard to wear and their are restriction.I recently bought myself a kakeshita lol .this is fun to watch.
i bought a pair of clothing last year from a japanese surplus shop. i just bought it because i was curious. after watching this video now i know that clothing is jinbei.
Thank you for supplying the website for buying. I only have 4 kimonos and 2 hakama. They are mostly for formal occasions, but I have been asked to wear it more often. (I live in Tokyo). At first I felt uncomfortable being in kimono as a man, but it seems many people like it and often ask questions. I live in Tokyo and even Japan ask about it all the time.
HI shogo, Please do some review on Ghost of Tsushima and Talk about Japan and Samurai's sword art as well as tradition in the game, like how realistic it is, the origin the meaning etc etc.
I'm sorry, but are there any other kimono-like things but that are good for people who are bad with tying things? I'm a little broken and I recently avoid even lancing shoes as it takes me too much time and it's problematic even without cat's interruption. I think trying to tie those two strings in Jinbei would be a little hard for me and surely would catch cat's attention. Are there any things that can be tied with right hand only or tying can be avoided? Are there any hospital-friendly clothes that are easy to wash too? I'm sorry, I'm just really broken and I got a little jealous looking at you, tying all those things so fast and cutely and I just thought that I may not be able to do it like you did. You are really great! Every time you would feel down, just think that there is someone who admires even simple things in you, like how you can tie things!
I love wearing Jinbei in summer; not only at home, but I also outside, visiting a city, or just going out for a cold drink, etc... I don't really know if that is an appropiate use of Jinbei, but since nobody in my country knows, it's ok! XD
glad that there was a video about this.. i was invited into barbeque party by my japanese friend. she said that its nice if i can wear a jinbei 甚平。because i like her i quickly agree without thinking..the party is in saturday and i dont know where in kyoto i can buy these... please help master shogo onegaishimasu
@@ronsorage78 I'm a designer. I know about denim and I have a collection of kimonos. Denim is not suitable for kimonos. Normally they are made out of silk
The one that was denim was a lighter, work-wear like a monk would wear. I imagine they didn't have an issue with denim in it as....they made it in denim. Don't like it take it up with the people that made it. I simply stated that as a fabric for work wear, denim is a durable choice. I wear jeans every day working on truck unloads. I manage just fine in all Temps and what was worn in the vid was much lighter. Guess its a good thing you didn't make anything I work in or it would have been torn up in a week I guess.
Great content that shows more traditional clothing!! Here on TH-cam there is a English speaking licensed Kimono teacher, BillyMatsunaga I highly recommend her to any person wanting to know more about Kimono. Especially English speakers!
So cool! Makes a lot more sense for people that worked out in the fields or did a lot of house work. Ain’t no one back in ye olden days have time to wear a fussy kimono to do chores. 😂 Question- maybe your lovely ladies can do a video on kimono and pregnancy? With clothing like corsets, there were special ones that would change along with the woman’s body. I wonder how did women go about dealing kimono and obi while pregnant?
I'm not all that familiar with kimono, but from what I've learned, that's what the ohashori is for. It's meant to adjust the length of the kimono as your body develops through pregnancy, unlike men's kimono that remain the same length.
These look so nice! My only worry is like, I’m fat. And I am painfully aware of how seldom nice clothes in Japan are made available for fat people. :< (srsly, try being a fan of lolita fashion while also being fat, it’s rough tbh 😭)
As I'll be returning to Japan during Summer again this year, I'm curious to know if there are any tourist situations where Jinbei would be inappropriate. With any luck, they can be worn in pretty much any non-business scenario, because when we were there last year, it was brutally hot. I'm particularly concerned about eating out in the evening, for example at a particular Yakuniku restaurant we fell in love with in Kamigyo.
I enjoy this alot I didn't know there was a 2 peice kimono. Do you have a video on obi? I have the instant easy obi. How do Japanese feel about it compair to a traditional obi. And what all require to wear the easy one vs a traditional one?
Hi! Regarding the easy obi, either if it’s for yukata or kimono, you need all the same things usually as you would need for traditional obi (as the “easy” part is that it’s tied into the final decorative fashion already). For example, for kimono you’d still need to add on the obi-makura, the obi-age, and the obi-jime even with easy obi.
Hello Shogo, quick off topic question for you or any fellow commenter: I’ve seen instances (mainly in Japanese media) where the map of Japan is shown “tilted” west-east, rather than the usual north-south layout. Any particular reason for this? Thanks.
Lol shogo i was going to buy a samue to do house work, i live in Texas and i currently use Thai fisherman pants to keep cool while working in the yard or cleaning the house, but anyway the whole site is in Japanese and i cant read it to order!! Edit: Hello Nagi you and your sister are so adorable!
do you recommend any other websites for shopping kimonos too? the website from the video description is completely in japanese. still nice and informative video👍 i enjoy your content thanks
You have a beautiful family. I think that I might be too large for these clothes at 2 meters tall and heavily built. A pity as the mens clothes really appealed.
Hey Shogo sensei I have a friend who wants to live in Japan so he’s going to be an English teacher do you have any tips or advice that I can tell him about
Okay, so I just stumbled across a video that said you lived in Michigan, USA for 4 or 6 years (I forget which one), is this still true? Because if so it'd be an honor to somehow one day meet you.
Nice clothes you got there! Fun to see you trying out the clothes (with a little fashion show-off on the side), even the baby had something. Samue does give the utility clothes vibes for me but I guess it is comfortable and fun to wear. What kind of shoes are you supposed have with them? Also, now that it has been mentioned, have you ever met or talked to a Buddhist monk?

Tatami mats grow like bamboo in Shogo's backyard so he needs to trim them with his katana every video to keep them in check.
I love everyone's modeling skills lol now I want to buy a pair
me too actually lol

Aww Harumi chan is so quiet🥺...and also cute and beautiful🤩🥰
That was fun to see you all showing off these nice clothes and having fun yourselves.
If I lived in Japan I would wear the samue everyday but only at home. They have that perfect balance of efficiency and comfort.

Wearing Kimono is my dream but don't know when I get the chance to visit Japan! 🥺

I plan on getting a Sumue for myself when I move out. Thank you for putting the links in. Now I can look at it in the future for reference.
The black or dark navy blue for me, DEFINITELY :)
hello friends Thank you for an informative video
Wow😮
All of them looks amazing😃
(Now I really want to try wear it someday)
Japanese culture is nice 😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍
Finally a video about kimono
Samue is my favorite lounge wear for at home. I didn't know about jinbei though. I'll have to check that out.
The 2 pieces kimono is nice 💕
I can see wearing the jean samue with white airforce 1s and a bucket hat. Maybe have the top part open with a T shirt under . 🙌🏾 🔥
I like my jinbei set my mom got me when she went to Japan. The bottoms are shorts 👍
That is literally what I was looking up, thank you so much for this video.
I'm a 13 year old male and i had been wearing female kimono for about a year now.its not actually hard to wear and their are restriction.I recently bought myself a kakeshita lol .this is fun to watch.
Thank you for such great videos. We appreciate the knowledge you are teaching us.
Oh i just find your channel and i love it! Thanks so much!!!
Nagi is so cute🥺🥺🥺
Can't wait to try wearing a kimono this autumn!!!
I actually recently bought this vintage Hanten and it’s so cozy especially because it’s starting to get cold!
i bought a pair of clothing last year from a japanese surplus shop. i just bought it because i was curious. after watching this video now i know that clothing is jinbei.

4:57 made me want a jinbei
You guys are so lovely, thank you!
The Obi works as a corsette to pull in the stomach, so it doesn't flop around.
I have never seen an obese Japanese apart from sumo wrestlers
Spandex.... at the ankles, perfect if you are a super-hero!
OMG THE BABY😍😍😍😍😭😭😭❤
super cute, Nagiiiiiiii!
I really enjoyed watching. Your videos are very informative. Thank you for sharing.

I just discovered your channel great content!
Greetings from Arizona:)
Nagi is soooooo cute!
I love Samue
I bet Shogo would look great in a woman’s Kimono
The denim ones would last long, be hardier while working but also comfortable. Not a bad material choice.
It will be too heavy to wear
There are different weights of denim.

Shogo: Puts links in the description for kimono
Me who goes there: I can't read Japanese.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for showing us how to wear these (alternative) Kimonos, I learned alot.
Also, would you compare an Obi with a corset?
The first kimono is the MADAO kimono
Great content that shows more traditional clothing!! Here on TH-cam there is a English speaking licensed Kimono teacher, BillyMatsunaga I highly recommend her to any person wanting to know more about Kimono. Especially English speakers!
Yaay! Thank you!

I'm not all that familiar with kimono, but from what I've learned, that's what the ohashori is for. It's meant to adjust the length of the kimono as your body develops through pregnancy, unlike men's kimono that remain the same length.
These look so nice! My only worry is like, I’m fat. And I am painfully aware of how seldom nice clothes in Japan are made available for fat people. :< (srsly, try being a fan of lolita fashion while also being fat, it’s rough tbh 😭)
Thanks a lot for this🤗👋
As I'll be returning to Japan during Summer again this year, I'm curious to know if there are any tourist situations where Jinbei would be inappropriate.
With any luck, they can be worn in pretty much any non-business scenario, because when we were there last year, it was brutally hot.
I'm particularly concerned about eating out in the evening, for example at a particular Yakuniku restaurant we fell in love with in Kamigyo.
I enjoy this alot I didn't know there was a 2 peice kimono. Do you have a video on obi? I have the instant easy obi. How do Japanese feel about it compair to a traditional obi. And what all require to wear the easy one vs a traditional one?
Hi! Regarding the easy obi, either if it’s for yukata or kimono, you need all the same things usually as you would need for traditional obi (as the “easy” part is that it’s tied into the final decorative fashion already). For example, for kimono you’d still need to add on the obi-makura, the obi-age, and the obi-jime even with easy obi.
Thanks!
Hello Shogo, quick off topic question for you or any fellow commenter:
I’ve seen instances (mainly in Japanese media) where the map of Japan is shown “tilted” west-east, rather than the usual north-south layout. Any particular reason for this? Thanks.
Lol shogo i was going to buy a samue to do house work, i live in Texas and i currently use Thai fisherman pants to keep cool while working in the yard or cleaning the house, but anyway the whole site is in Japanese and i cant read it to order!!
Edit: Hello Nagi you and your sister are so adorable!
Apparently the company he suggested has an amazon storefront
@@thatonehumanoid7756 awesome I'll check that out thanks!
do you recommend any other websites for shopping kimonos too? the website from the video description is completely in japanese. still nice and informative video👍
i enjoy your content thanks
Love your videos! What is the difference between a Samue and a Gi? (Other than the pockets, the Samue looks just like the Gi I wore years ago.)
You are such a sweet couple!!!
You have a beautiful family. I think that I might be too large for these clothes at 2 meters tall and heavily built. A pity as the mens clothes really appealed.
Hey Shogo sensei I have a friend who wants to live in Japan so he’s going to be an English teacher do you have any tips or advice that I can tell him about
I was unable to order product from the website you listed. Where can I purchase this that ships to USA?
I kinda want to try out one of those, but I'm not sure I could pull it off.
Idk if wearing kimono is so much hard as it is that western style living does not have good synergy with kimono.
I tried to buy but it said I needed an address in Japan. I’ll try again when I have more time to figure it out. Thanks for the video!!
Yatta!! I did it! :D
Excelente
Would like to ask?
What are the furry looking collars worn with the kimono around New Years?
What is their significance?
Okay, so I just stumbled across a video that said you lived in Michigan, USA for 4 or 6 years (I forget which one), is this still true? Because if so it'd be an honor to somehow one day meet you.
Nice clothes you got there! Fun to see you trying out the clothes (with a little fashion show-off on the side), even the baby had something. Samue does give the utility clothes vibes for me but I guess it is comfortable and fun to wear. What kind of shoes are you supposed have with them?
Also, now that it has been mentioned, have you ever met or talked to a Buddhist monk?
Your kimono are wonderful but the link is only in japanese
