Hello! This is Waplus Nara –

Kimono Rental, located inside the Nara Park Bus Terminal.

We’re happy to welcome you to our shop! (´꒳`)🌙✨

 

 

Winter in Nara is a beautiful season, with crisp air and stunning clear views of the city streets. ✨

 

If you’ve ever thought,

“It’s cold, but I still want to try wearing a kimono👘”

or

“I want to stroll around Nara in a kimono,”

then this guide is for you.

 

Here are our best tips for staying warm and enjoying kimono comfortably in winter. 👘🧣

🔥 Tips to Stay Warm in Your Kimono During Winter in Nara

◆Keep Your Neck Warm for Instant Comfort 🧣◆

Winter in Nara can be quite chilly, especially with the cold winds,

so protecting your neck is key to staying comfortable.

 

At our shop, we offer shawls and scarves for free rental (limited quantity)❣❣

・Shawls: Elegant and perfect for photos

・Scarves: Extra warm and ideal for walking around the city

Both are carefully selected to match your kimono,

so you can enjoy Nara comfortably and stylishly 👘✨

 

◆Add a Haori (Optional) for Extra Warmth on Long Walks ❣❣◆

A haori, the traditional jacket worn over a kimono, is a winter essential!

 

Lighter than a coat and less likely to mess up your kimono,

it’s both practical and stylish (⋈◍＞◡＜◍)。✧♡

Benefits of Wearing a Haori:

・Keeps your whole body gently warm

・Comfortable even in temperatures around 5°C (41°F)

・Adds a calm, elegant touch to your photos

・Enhances the retro charm and matches the atmosphere of Naramachi

Pairing a shawl with a haori is the ultimate combination for enjoying a winter stroll in Nara 👘✨

 

◆Stay Cozy with Boots × Kimono Styling ❣❣◆

We often get asked,

“Do boots really go with a kimono?”

 

The answer is yes! In winter, boots are much warmer and easier to walk in,

making them a perfect choice.

 

Why boots are popular for winter kimono outfits:

・Keep your feet warm, which tend to get cold easily

・Ideal for long walks while sightseeing in Nara

・Easy to walk on stone pavements and slopes

・Safe and comfortable even on rainy days

・Stylish with a retro-modern look

Wearing your own boots allows you to enjoy your kimono without worrying about unfamiliar zori sandals ✨

Note: We do not offer boots for rental.
