    dividerCultural Background Information:

    *What is Asa? In the centuries before cotton was commonly used in Japan, asa was a major fabric used in pre-modern times; It is a fabric that used flax or hemp plants instead of cotton, a traditional fabric made in Japan for centuries up until the 1950s; Asa is usually hard and rough to the touch when woven to be used for utilitarian purposes such as coverings, screen mesh, curtains, etc.; We sometimes see (but rarely these days) work clothing or aprons in thicker rough asa, but these kimonos in this package were made originally as summer kimono (usually called Yukata) asa; Asa is stronger and lasts longer than cotton, it is ideal for summer wear because the fabric breathes and wicks moisture very well, keeping the body cool, even better than cotton; These asa kimono are softer than the utilitarian mesh asa from the same period.

    Condition:   Sold as Cutters because of some imperfections, such as holes (not large), stains, and aging; even so, some may be good enough for casual wear or costume purposes.

    PACKAGE AVAILABILITY:

    This type of package is very popular among our members and regular customers. We've never received a complaint about these products in the many years we've been offering these kinds of packages -- in fact, mostly we get rave reviews from vintage Japanese cotton and boro lovers. We accumulate these slowly throughout the year. Because many people desire these distinctive and sometimes rare packages, and not as many of them are available any longer, we are only able to offer them sporadically throughout the year.
