This is a "Ro Hitotobi Obi" (single-layer summer obi). Although unused, it has been stored, so it is listed as "Like New." Images 1-4 are samples. The box in image 5 is included. The box has some wear and tear due to age. Perfect for your first obi, such as for ordination. Hitotobi Obi (when unfolded, it looks like a single piece of fabric.) Size: Width: 9.5cm x Length: 410cm Weight: 190g The color is not pure white, but off-white. Fabric detail: Image 8 Light-pile obis are quick to put on, but the rubber deteriorates over time, and the Velcro loses its grip due to fraying. In contrast, cotton obis take longer to put on, but they have less aging, fit the waist well, and provide a stable feel. They are also made of natural materials and are environmentally friendly. Thank you. Saneippatsu (Three Robes and One Bowl) The three types of robes and the bowl (for begging) that a Buddhist monk (bhikshu) is allowed to possess. Also known as <sanneippatsu>. The three robes are: antarvāsa (lower garment, also transliterated as Andae), worn underneath, uttarāsaṅga (upper garment, also transliterated as Uttaraso), worn over it, and sometimes saṃghāṭi (double robe, also transliterated as Sōgyari), worn over that. These all had prescribed shapes, sizes, colors, sewing methods, and ways of wearing. The three robes are collectively called <kesa> (kasaya), which is a name derived from their color. Early monks lived a simple life, and the only personal belongings they were allowed to have were these three robes, a bowl, a sitting mat (zagu), and a water filter (rokusuinou), the <rokumotsu> (six items). Even after various possessions were allowed, these robes and the bowl were considered the most important belongings of a monk and were revered as symbols of monastic life.
