Buying Yukata

Hi,

We would like to purchase a used or new Yukata or Kimono. We will be in Japan in 22 Dec till 4 Jan in Osaka and Tokyo.

Can you advise where we can get a reasonable price (SGD 100) Yukata?

Thank you

Regards
Jade

The only places I can think of that sell yukata during that time are used clothing stores like Hard Off/Off House, or used kimono stores which *might* have some. But most of the used kimono stores I've been to put that stock away during the winter, since there's little demand for it. I'd search for a Hard Off/Off House in the area, as I've had the best luck with them.

How about Nakamise Asakusa in Tokyo.
There are Kimono shops and japanese traditional goods shops.
But many Japanese wear yukata in summer,so maybe you can find few.
I'm sorry, I couldn't help you.

There are a lot of shops surrounding the grounds around Senso-ji temple in Asakusa. Look around, but don't settle for the first store you see. There are quite a few of them. There are deals to be had. I picked up a full kimono with obi for 1000 Yen.
