This is what I wear around the house pretty regularly. That thing is not easy to put on, it took me about 2 months before I could get it on "easily" and it still takes me about 10-20 minutes to put on. And ladies (or men), if you ever wear a kimono of any kind "womans' styled," the tuck (that little fold you see under the obi) is evil. Pure evil. Plus you need many ties and a very long patience and a strong desire to learn. For those of you who are curious, the black thing next to me is my dog, Kobie, who refused to move.
