Kimonoboy is our company name. We are an online dealer of Japanese antique and vintage goods with a specialty in mid 1800s to 1900s cotton indigo textiles and old farmer's clothing.
 My name is Jim Austin, I own the company. I came to Japan 12 years ago to study Japanese for personal interest. Shortly after arriving, I was fortunate to meet a wonderful woman, Akiko, who I fell in love with and married. Akiko and I decided to reside in Japan rather than the USA where I am from. My marriage to Akiko and our decision to live in Japan were two of the wisest commitments I have ever made. I’m a very lucky guy.
We wish to provide a web presence where people from anywhere in the world can acquire exceptional Japanese early textiles and Old Cotton Indigo Farmer’s clothing. Besides Japanese textiles we also sell from time to time on eBay Japanese militaria, Edo & Meiji antiques.
