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 Tsuyushiba motif
Tsuyushiba is a pattern inspired by blades of grass covered in morning dew. In Japanese, "tsuyu" refers to dew, while "shiba" means grass or lawn. This pattern symbolizes the purity, freshness, and beauty of nature at dawn. In Japanese culture, dew is seen as a symbol of renewal and serenity. Tsuyushiba evokes the tranquility of peaceful mornings, when dew deposits glistening drops on the grasses, representing the simplicity and fragile beauty of the natural world. On our cap, this pattern brings a touch of calm and refinement, while paying homage to nature.
