Made to order · about 12 weeks (within three months)Why?

You choose the colour family; we choose the cloth. The pattern will differ from the photographs.

Every item is made to order and one-of-a-kind. No two are exactly alike.

We unravel obi (kimono sashes) that were destined for disposal and meticulously handcraft each item after receiving your order.

Patterns cannot be chosen (please read carefully)

Each obi has unique patterns and weaves; no two obi with the same pattern exist. Furthermore, the appearance of the pattern changes significantly depending on where the obi is cut.

Therefore, we cannot deliver a product with the exact same pattern as the images shown. The photos displayed are examples of items previously created in that color scheme.

Customers can only choose the "color scheme." We will select an obi that matches your chosen color scheme, tailor it, and deliver it to you. We cannot accommodate requests for specific patterns, designs, or products shown in images.

We hope you embrace the "not knowing what pattern you'll receive" as part of the joy of owning a unique, one-of-a-kind item. You can view previous examples in our Gallery page.

Delivery Time

Production begins after payment confirmation, with an estimated delivery time of approximately 12 weeks. This time is required because the selection, cutting, and sewing of the obi are all done by hand.

Production is carried out in collaboration with employment support services (Type B) in Hiroshima Prefecture, where individuals with disabilities carefully craft each item.

8 Ways to Use

A detachable strap is included. In addition to being held as a clutch, it can be used as a shoulder bag or crossbody bag, depending on the occasion.

Made-to-order pieces & tailoring vouchers: production begins once payment is confirmed and takes approximately 12 weeks. For tailoring vouchers, the 12 weeks are counted from the day your fabric reaches us. Shipping time is added after production is complete.

A tracking number is provided for every shipment.

Materials, Sizes & One-of-a-kind Pieces

Every piece is made from vintage kimono or obi, so no two are alike. Because the fabric is cut individually, the colour, pattern and texture differ with each item.

As each piece is finished by hand, there is natural variation in engraving, stitching and dimensions. These are characteristics of the product, not defects.

Product photographs are representative examples; the pattern on the piece you receive may differ.

For exact dimensions or material details on a specific piece, please contact info@readyb.store and we will send you the details of the actual item.

Returns & Cancellations

Because every piece is one-of-a-kind or made to order, we cannot accept returns or exchanges based on customer preference (change of mind, sizing, or the pattern differing from expectation).

If your item arrives damaged, or differs from what you ordered, please contact us within 14 days of delivery and we will arrange a return or exchange.

Made-to-order pieces can be cancelled before production begins. Once production has started, cancellation is not possible.
