Yukata and jinbei are traditional summer classics in Japan, and SOU・SOU's selection for kids is absolutely beautiful and adorable!

Yukata are similar in design to kimono, but much lighter and easier to wear. This kids' summer range includes simple yukata that are especially comfortable and easy to wear. They are made from traditional Isemomen cotton, a soft type of cotton that is perfect for delicate skin, and gets softer the more it’s washed!

The beautiful designs have been printed using Kyoto’s exquisite traditional Yuzen-style printing.
