double-woven obi(FUKUROOBI)

Japanese clothesclothing

A lightweight and simplified version of the round obi that is easier to fasten. The length is around 4.3 m. Basically, a patterned outer fabric and a plain inner fabric are combined to form a sack shape. Next to the round obi, it is the most formal type of obi and is most commonly used for formal occasions today. It is often tied in an o-daiko knot. Many of them have gorgeous patterns using gold and silver threads, but those with subdued patterns can be worn in semi-formal occasions.
