Golden Life Scenes Obi Hoodie

This design features gold-woven scenes depicting everyday life in historical Japan, upcycled from a rare vintage Japanese obi, offering a quiet narrative within a single textile.

The original 4.5-metre obi is exceptionally rare, with different scenes unfolding along its entire length, forming one continuous story—no two sections are the same.

Custom orders are available in the same fabric.
As each piece is made from a single obi, the pattern placement will vary, so it won’t be exactly the same as shown in the photos. If you’d like, we can confirm the fabric placement in advance by email—please get in touch.

Orders are usually ready to ship within 7–10 days.
Sizes currently in stock are available for immediate dispatch.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.

What is a Fukuro Obi?

A Fukuro obi (袋帯) is a long, decorative sash traditionally worn with formal kimono in Japan. Usually woven from luxurious silk with intricate patterns, the obi is a symbol of Japanese craftsmanship and culture.

By repurposing this beautiful textile, we create a sustainable hoodie that blends Japanese tradition with contemporary fashion. Perfect for those who love unique festival clothing, boho streetwear, or Japanese-inspired style.

Fabric and care

Dry clean, or gently hand wash in cold water, avoiding the obi section.
