Obi Guitar Factory
Your guitar deserves a story.
Why Obi?
For centuries, obi have carried the visual language of Japanese dress: seasonal motifs, formal textures, and woven symbols chosen with care.
Most vintage obi we source arrive without a complete personal history. That mystery is part of their presence. We study the motif, the weave, and the patina, then rebuild the textile for a new life on stage.
Now, the next chapter belongs to the guitar that wears it.
From Kimono to Stage
-
Step 1: Source
We hunt vintage obi from kimono shops and estate sales across Japan.
-
Step 2: Cut & Craft
Each obi is carefully cut and crafted onto a durable nylon backing in our Hiroshima studio.
-
Step 3: Ship
One-of-a-kind. Once it's gone, it's gone. Free standard worldwide shipping from Hiroshima, Japan.
Stage presence is everything. The obi fabric catches the light in a way no leather strap ever could. One of a kind — that's the only way I'd have it.
The straps are beautifully handmade with incredible attention to detail. Both the products and the personal care behind them are exceptional.
The guitar strap just arrived. It is truly beautiful! Highly recommended.
