@keeganhasegawa: With an estimated 500 tons, 196 Billion Dollars (yes that’s the real number) worth of Kimonos sitting around in closets in Japan, the high quality garments are literally rotting away. That large number comes from the fact that Kimonos are often customized and purchased at very high price points for special occasions and afterwards, sit in closets as family heirlooms. With a decline in demand, they’re now being thrown away. But at @kimonoreborntokyo Sho-san and his team are reviving them into AMAZING high quality products. 

My personal favorites were the T-Shirts and Tabi shoes! Considering the fact that every item is one of one and combined with their commitment to sustainability I cannot recommend this place enough if you’re looking for unique Japanese craftsmanship!!!
