Daruma Doll (Red, 12cm)
- Description
Daruma dolls are symbols of good luck, hope and optimism. They are weighted at the bottom so no matter how many times you push them over, they bounce right back - symbolizing optimism and the never say die spirit.
Paint in one eye with a black pen, make a wish and when that wish comes true, paint in the other other eye.
Daruma dolls are used in Japan for many purposes, most often for luck at the beginning of an undertaking of some sort. Politicians are regularly seen painting in the eye when they have won an election. Store and bar owners place them at the front of the shop. Daruma are often used by people wishing to pass exams, or even conceive a child!
Daruma dolls are a representation of Bodhidharma, the father of Zen in Japan. He is said to have lost the use of his legs after meditating for many years.

Let customers speak for us
Definitely a must shop and go for genuine japanese clothing.
The Giants pro model fitted cap is perfect for a fan of the Giants. It fits well and is stylish.
I am very impressed by the quality and the workmanship of the garment. I live in a cold mountain town in Colorado. Our winter can be brutal. I am looking forward to utilizing my new Hansen
The tobi pants fit perfectly at the size i chose. The accompanying jacket that i bought is a little short on the sleeves but perfect in the shoulders. Im 1.85m tall 80kg and i bought a L size jacket. The material feels awesome
Excellent quality clothing. Order comes in good time. Very happy customer
Perfect fit and comfort! Could wash them easily. Will probably buy one more pair of another color.
perfect bagginess, 10/10 would recommend
I wear it to study, do paperwork, lawnwork, anything. There is no better feeling than knocking out some homework shirtless with this wrapped around your head.
I am 6’4 and 250ibs and finding shoes in my size in Japan is really hard but this place delivered, they look great and feel great and have a cool look to them any bigger dude with a thick frame check these out.
as I am in the USA, work in a world, with too many choices for working clothes, I can buy what seems sensible,am unhappy the moment I try them on.Except in this case. I can move my shoulders, arms as well,and crawl and reach,without the need to re-adjust my sloppy,untucked,western shirt situation.Truly great to not be embarassed by clothes, These are the best!
These are awesome!
Fast shipping,Great product
Keep up the good work
These are my fourth pair of Toraichi, and although I originally intended them to be something of a novelty, (I chose camouflage, accordingly) these are my favorite cut, thus far.
I intend to acquire more of them, in more colors, as I could wear these every day. The cotton fabric, in conjunction with the roominess of the cut imparts a micro-climate effect that helps regulate temperature much more comfortably than western work pants. Less weight at the cuffs makes them easier to walk around in, and they don't drag at the cuffs or at the seat, nor do they bind.
And, yes-- "fighting spirtit at work!" is more than just a slogan. I am old enough to remember the world before civilian cargo pants, when the work of cowboys dictated what the rest of us wore to work in the US. When cargos hit the scene, they gave one the feeling of "combat readiness," as they were adapted from Battle Dress Uniforms, but they are a flawed concept.
Toraichi imbue the wearer with a similar feeling of readiness and ability, but with a much less militaristic attitude; "fighting spirit," with the intent to do one's best, and not necessarily to defeat, dominate, or harm anything in the process.
For me, and the life I live-- they are perfect, even though I do not ride horses.
