This listing is for a single dark blue heko obi that we will choose for you from the ones we have in stock. Sorry, no individual photos are available in keeping with this low price.

Blue versions of this style are less common than the black or gray versions, so we were fortunate to acquire several.

Heko obi are an informal version often worn with a casual kimono. It's a very popular style for men but can also be worn by women - either with a kimono or as a scarf or shawl over the shoulders on a cool evening.

A heko obi is a wide, very long, single layer of fabric that is solid color for most of the length with shibori patterning on each end. Patterning is typically geometric but some florals are possible. They are typically just wound around the waist a few times and tied in a simple bow in the back (see photo examples).

Please note that the photos are examples of inventory at the time we listed this. If you prefer a particular one, send a note with your order and if it's still available we'll send it.
