Haori and men’s formal wear.
Haori is like a cardigan, and it is also part of men’s formal wear.
The length of the Haori depends on what’s trendy at the time.
Haori for men and women has slightly different features.
There are different types of Haori-Himo that you can mix and match.
The highest level of men’s formal wear uses Haori with Mon in it.
There are different types of Mon.
Kamon (kah-moh-n) is a family crest, and different families have different designs.
But there are also a lot of families who don’t know their Kamon, so there are many generic Kamon they can use for their kimono.
