Sayonnara Moto-Ya!

Moto-Ya

It is with deep regret that I report the demise of one of the first English kimono sites online, Moto-ya.com. I bought my first uchikake from Moto-ya, as well as numerous obi and kitsuke accessories. Uchikake The owners were always very helpful and polite and the quality of presentation & packaging of purchased items was second only to the folks at Ichiroya. There's not much left on the site now, but everything is 50% off the listed price until December 31st, when they pull the plug for good.

 

Here's wishing the folks at Moto-ya all the best!
