This is a maternity belt from Inu-jirushi, a long-established brand of maternity belts. It's a functional design that combines the traditional Iwata belt style with elastic material at the end. It's also washable for hygiene. I received this at a shrine a few years ago during my pregnancy when I went to pray for a safe delivery. I had other belly bands, so I never used this one and stored it, but it has yellowed slightly due to long-term storage. Please see the images. Color: White
