Description from the seller

Kamishimo(裃) is a type of formal dress for men in kimono, usually consisting of a kataginu (肩衣 shoulder gown) and hakama(袴) made of the same fabric and worn over a kosode (小袖 short-sleeved kimono). In the Edo period (1603-1867), it was considered the most formal attire for unauthorized samurai, and was often followed by peasants and townspeople of rank, and is still used in traditional performing arts and festivals.

This kamishimo is made of hemp cloth and dyed with katazome.
The family crest is dyed on the chest and back of the kataginu and on the waist of the hakama.
The color is burnt brown.
It's a somewhat rare color, and you can tell it was carefully repaired and cherished even after tearing.

We wish to introduce Japanese arts and crafts to the rest of the world. We present to you items that you will not find anywhere else, such as KIMONOS, TEXTILES, ceramics, wood products, bamboo products, etc. Simple but unique and one-of-a-kind. Things are not just things. They are imbued with philosophy, thought, soul, and spirit. We would be more than happy if we could communicate with you through those items.
