Being born a Japanese one must wear a kimono! When wearing a Ramie kimono, the tension and the stiffness of the Ramie gives the sleeves an airy, comfortable feeling. It feels cool while walking in it too. It absorbs any sweat and it dries quickly, a perfect material for the Japanese summer.

The kimono and the obi are a combination. Which is why in AONI, we don’t combine with the same materials; this is where the “other” Asa come in. Hemp, Piña or Kudzu, whichever that suits your taste.

Reference: Eight-Sun and nine-sun represent the width of the Obi. However, this may sound confusing but both Obi become eight-sun (approx. 30.4cm) when they are made.
An easier way to put it would be:
Nine-sun (Thin fabric): Actual width (34.2cm) – Seam allowance (3.8cm) = Obi width (30.4cm)
Eight-sun (Thick fabric): Actual width = Obi width (30.4cm)
A piña cloth is regularly used to make shawl, but how about a see-through Kimono coat? The patterns of Obi and Kimono being visible through a coat is quite fashionable.
