Hello from Kimono Rental Waplus Kyoto Yasaka Shrine Store 👘
June in Kyoto is a beautiful season filled with soft rainy scenery. The fresh green maple leaves and stone-paved streets become even more charming when touched by the rain, creating a different kind of Kyoto atmosphere compared to sunny days.

At the same time, many visitors worry, “Isn’t it too hot and humid for kimono during the rainy season?” or “Will yukata feel uncomfortable in summer?”
So today, we would like to share a few simple tips and traditional Japanese “grandma’s wisdom” for enjoying kimono and yukata more comfortably during Kyoto’s humid rainy season ✨
One traditional tip often passed down in Japan is to keep your neck, wrists, and ankles cool.
In fact, kimono can sometimes feel more breathable than regular clothes, and with just a few small adjustments, the overall comfort can change a lot. Especially during humid weather, wearing your hair up not only creates a refreshing and elegant look, but also helps you stay cooler while sightseeing.
At Waplus Kyoto Yasaka Shrine Store, neat and refreshing summer hairstyles are especially popular during this season 🌿
Recently, light and airy coordination styles using lace obi belts and soft heko obi have also become very popular. These accessories create a cooler visual impression and are perfect for beautiful Kyoto photos during early summer.

We also recommend adding traditional Japanese accessories such as folding fans or lace drawstring bags. They are not only practical during warm weather, but also add a lovely accent to your kimono or yukata style ✨

In the Gion and Yasaka Shrine area, the evenings become slightly cooler, making it a perfect time for walking around Kyoto in kimono or yukata. Rainy days in Kyoto are also considered a hidden gem season, with fewer crowds and a calm atmosphere that makes photos look especially beautiful 📸

At Waplus Kyoto Yasaka Shrine Store, we carefully suggest kimono and yukata styles based on the season, temperature, and your sightseeing plans for the day.
If you are worried about the heat, or unsure which accessories match your style, please feel free to ask our staff anytime 😊
Why not enjoy the elegant atmosphere of Kyoto in the rainy season with a special kimono stroll?
