$69.00
A kappōgi (割烹着, literally cooking wear') is a type of gown-like apron, originating in Japan. First designed to protect kimono from food stains, it has baggy sleeves terminating just after the elbow, and is as long as the wearer's knees. Its strips of cloth are tied at the back of neck and waist. It is particularly used when cooking and cleaning.
The kappogi was introduced at Japan's first culinary academy, Akahori Kappō School, in 1904 when most people wore kimono on a daily basis.
