Japanese undergarments have a special way of making you feel warm and cozy, almost like an anime hug for your stomach. In Japan, there are many unique methods for staying warm during the cold winter months, and one of them is a clothing item known as a "haramaki". This garment, which translates to "belly wrap", has a long history dating back to feudal times when it was used as armor to protect the abdomen. However, in modern times, it has made a comeback as a fun undergarment that not only keeps your stomach warm but also improves circulation.
The haramaki's design is perfect for cute and playful designs, which inspired Studio Ghibli to incorporate it into their fashion line. And when it comes to cute characters, there's no one better than Totoro from the beloved anime My Neighbor Totoro. Fans of the studio will surely recognize the iconic markings of Totoro's rotund belly on the haramaki, making it a must-have item for any fan.
But it's not just for adults, as Studio Ghibli has made sure to include children in on the fun as well. The haramaki comes in both adult and children's sizes, so anyone can experience the warmth and cuteness of a Totoro belly hug. The packaging is just as adorable, with the adult size on the left and the child size on the right.
Named the "Totoro's Belly Marshmallow Haramaki", this garment is made from a stretchy and soft "marshmallow fabric" that is not only warm and fluffy but also thin enough to not affect the appearance of your clothes. It's not just a practical item for keeping warm, but also a source of joy in your daily life, like a secret shared between you and the Soot Sprites that adorn Totoro's belly.
You can get your own Totoro belly hug at Donguri Kyowakoku stores all over Japan or online. The adult size retails for 3,080 yen and the child size for 2,860 yen. Follow Donguri Kyowakoku on Facebook and Twitter to stay updated on their latest products and releases. Enjoy the warmth and cuteness of a Totoro belly hug all winter long!
