- Each item is inspected individually before shipment. If there are any noticeable damages or stains, they will be noted on the product page as much as possible.
- Natural materials such as pure silk may experience color transfer or ring stains due to water exposure or friction.
- Each garment is handmade, so there may be slight individual differences in sewing and finishing.
- Colors may appear different in photos compared to the actual product due to monitor settings and lighting during photography.

Manufacturing Process of the Product
Using carefully selected materials and the precise manufacturing techniques of skilled artisans with many years of experience,
we deliver flavorful, high-quality products.
Kimono Unraveling
We carefully unravel the kimono that has been worn for a long time, stitch by stitch.
With each thread we remove, the stories woven into the fabric gradually reveal themselves.
Kimono Cutting
We cut the fabric to be reborn in a new form.
To make the most of the material's patterns and texture,
we do this carefully while considering how to use each part.
Washing
Wash and purify the fabric that has been solved, preparing for its upcoming role.
By washing, the firmness and shine of the kimono are revived,
and it is ready to be infused with new life.
Sewing
Each stitch is sewn together with skilled craftsmanship, shaping it into form.
In this way, the obi and kimono are reborn as one-of-a-kind
clothes and bags.

Key Features
All Kigiku products are one-of-a-kind items made at the welfare facility nid.
By creating clothes and bags through personal experiences and ingenuity,
we cherish each individual's personality and pace, nurturing connections with society through craftsmanship.
We focus on designs that make the most of the original beauty of kimono, creating products that are comfortable and safe to use.
From a sustainability perspective, by regenerating kimonos that can no longer be worn without using new fabric, we not only contribute to the environment,
but also value the importance of passing on the feelings embedded in the kimono.
Kigiku is particular about material selection.
By choosing zippers and contrasting materials that match the fabric's color and pattern,
the works are completed to be suitable for both casual and formal occasions.
The handles of the tote bag are made only from genuine leather. By using genuine leather for the handles, they are less likely to dig into your shoulders or arms, making it perfect for outings as it is less burdensome even when carried for long periods.
Furthermore, the bottom board of the tote bag uses a black band, making it difficult to lose its shape, so you can carry your laptop or magazines with peace of mind.
When creating clothes and bags, we also value the handmade feel.
By intentionally not deciding on a manufacturing process,
we carefully create each piece so that you can enjoy unique works that reflect the individuality and ingenuity of the maker.
Additionally, we strive to make clothes and bags that are easy for users to incorporate into their daily lives.
Tote bags and clutch bags come with convenient inner pockets that can hold a lot, preventing items from getting scattered inside.
In the case of dresses and tops, we use three-quarter sleeves to ensure that the upper arms, which women tend to be concerned about, are not prominent. There are also short sleeves, but they are designed with a sleeve length that does not draw attention to the upper arms, allowing you to wear them with confidence.
