#037 cool mint jinbei set

Jinbei are a casual style of kimono that is perfect for relaxing around the house, at the beach, in summer, and for sleeping. The loosely fit design and string tie adjustments allow babies to wear the same size for over a year. 

This jinbei is approximately 70cm - 80cm (27.5" - 31.5") and is designed to fit babies that are 0 to 2 years old.

The string ties make it easy to put on lying down, and the pants comfortably cover babies' diapered bottoms with long crotch to waist design.

All warashi-ko jinbei are made exclusively from tenugui, a traditional Japanese textile, hand-dyed by Japanese artisans using the traditional chusen technique. Unlike printed fabric, textiles dyed with this technique have vibrant colors on both sides and uniqueness are heightened through uses and washes. 

The textile is the highest quality 100% tokuoka cotton fabric. As a character of the fabric, it gets softer and softer though each use, and each patterns has a unique name and story associated with it.

#037 jinbei uses "kanoko" for the top body, "kagome" for the sleeves, and "ryo-komochi-shima" for the pants. 

Kanoko: "Kanoko" is one of the most popular traditional tie-dye patterns. As Kanoko's characters suggests (written 鹿の子), the pattern was named after the markings on deer's back. 

Kagome: a traditional design, based on a basket's woven pattern. It's often been used for kimono designs and yukata (summer kimono) designs. 

Ryo-komochi shima: this is a stripe (shima) pattern, which consists of thick line in the middle and thin line on both sides (ryo = ryo-gawa = both sides). "Komochi" means "with children", and it's referring to the thin lines, attached to the thick line.

Each jinbei is shipped wrapped in soft furoshiki gauze cloth.
