Long Japanese Obi - 4m

• Japanese Obi - The obi is a sash worn with traditional Japanese clothing such as kimono or yukata. The obi is usually wide, ranging from 10-30 centimeters in width, and can be several meters in length, depending on the style and the wearer's size. The obi is tied around the waist, with the ends wrapped around the body and tied in a knot at the back or the front, depending on the occasion and the formality of the attire.
  
  The obi is an essential component of traditional Japanese clothing and is often made from luxurious fabrics such as silk, brocade, or embroidered cloth. It is available in a wide range of colors and designs, from simple and understated to vibrant and ornate, with patterns and motifs ranging from traditional Japanese symbols to modern designs.
  
  The style and design of the obi can convey various meanings and indicate the wearer's social status, age, and gender. For example, a simple and understated obi may be worn for everyday wear, while a more ornate and elaborate obi may be worn for formal occasions such as weddings or tea ceremonies.
