Hi, I'm Jade, founder of KimuraKami.

It started with one simple idea: Japanese style should be something you actually live with, not a costume you put away after one evening. Most of what we carry is clothing, and the rest is what goes around it: a mask on the wall, a lantern in the hallway, the cup you reach for every morning. I choose every piece myself, and I keep the ones I would use on an ordinary Tuesday.

Every order leaves here folded by hand, with a note. If something is not right, write to me and we will fix it.
