Take care of your
vintage Kimono products
Thank you for choosing to shop with THE OBI, KYOTO. Please review the following information regarding how to take care of your vintage Kimono products before making a purchase.
Please bear in mind that our products are made from vintage kimonos that have been used and worn multiple times, so they may already have some wear and tear. However, here are some tips for maintaining and preserving your kimono accessories to ensure their longevity and beauty:
-
Storage:
Cool and Dry Environment: Store your kimono products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and damage.
Keep Separately: Store kimono products separately from other accessories to prevent them from scratching or snagging the fabric.
-
Cleaning:
Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, gently blot the stain with a clean, damp cloth.
Airing Out: Occasionally air your kimono on a dry, sunny day (but not in direct sunlight) to freshen it up and prevent musty odors.
-
Repairs:
Loose Threads or Tears: Due to the nature of the fabric, loose threads or tears can occur more easily than with regular clothes. Cutting the threads is recommended to avoid further damage if you find them.
By following these guidelines, you can preserve the beauty and integrity of your kimono products, ensuring they remain a treasured part of your wardrobe for years to come.
