What is an Obi?
The obi is a wide, traditional Japanese belt worn with kimonos during ceremonies or special events. A true symbol of refinement, it is an essential element of traditional Japanese clothing. By repurposing obi scraps to create our caps, we offer you the opportunity to wear a piece of Japanese history, while giving new life to meaningful materials.
The Shippō motif
The Shippō (or "seven treasures") pattern is a traditional Japanese motif that depicts a set of interlocking circles. These circles symbolize harmony, infinity, and unity, as well as the idea of connection and balance in the universe. In Japanese culture, the Shippō is often associated with luck, prosperity, and protection. It is also seen as a symbol of longevity and stability. This pattern is frequently used in Japanese fabrics and art to convey messages of serenity and unity. On our cap, the Shippō pattern brings a touch of refinement while evoking balance and inner strength.
