Testimonials:
"Just a quick thank you ... received my Yukata ... fits perfectly ... haven't
taken it off since. It brings back fond memories of Japan."
Michael, WA
"I wanted to be sure and write to thank you for my order. I received my order
earlier than expected, I'm very impressed with the quality and will recommend your site
and service to everyone. Thanks again!" Anna, NM
"I just received a yukata I had ordered (blue pine and crane) and it is just
beautiful. Thanks."
"The Christmas gifts I bought from you were a big hit. The yukata that I bought
for my wife was tried on by almost every member of our family. My son loved it the most
and he loves the clock, its quite a conversation piece. I loved the green tea bags that
you sent, they are far superior to the ones sold locally." Bowden Family
"The Blue Pine & Crane Yukata is perfect! So much more beautiful than the
picture on the internet. I love it." Sincerely, Myrlan, UT

Yukata History
The name "yukata" comes from the word
"Yu" (bath) and "Katabira" (under-clothing). Thousands of years ago,
Court Nobles wore linen "Yukatabira" which were draped loosely after taking a
bath. It gradually became worn by japanese warriors and then by the general public when
the sophisticated japanese public bath became popular. Today, the traditional japanese
yukata are widely used for everything from dances, casual wear in the summer, to simple
night attire.
In Japan, the yukata is the most popular daily summer kimono wear and is
beloved for its 100% cotton fabric and traditional prints and patterns. All yukata's
are made and imported from Japan, 100% cotton, includes matching belt and full length in
size. Japanese yukatas are one size fits all and measured in length. Length is measured
from shoulder to the yukata bottom.
Our beautiful yukata make wonderful robes and great gifts!
