Daruma Doll (Red, 24cm)
- Description
- Info
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.

I got what I ordered just as I did last time.
Very happy.
If you can get the sizing right, you will not be disappointed with the quality and construction of this shirt. I'd initially ordered a size L but on arrival found it to be short in the arm length for my liking. It was kindly gifted to a family member. I promptly re-ordered the product in the adjusted size of 4L- just perfect!!
Now that I've dialled in the measurements for both tobi shirt & trouser, pending availability, I will be purchasing again.
Comfortable, sturdy belt. Love the leather. Love the double pin design, very functional.
Everything I expected and more. Supreme comfort, freedom of movement and quality. Happy to try another 😉
I bought these same shoes and I loved them but I got a size too big (my own fault). These are my repurchase of the right size! They are so comfortable and are probably my favorite shoes I own.
I love these shoes! They have a size conversion chart you can check when buying the shoes, as well Japanese shoe sizing being very straight forward. The size of the shoe is however many centimeters your foot is! I got nervous about choosing the right size and order a size too big. I bought another pair a size down and I will be using the pair that is a little too big as a pair to decorate. The ones I am getting in the correct size will be a pair of everyday shoes! They are comfortable and well made! The tabs are not hard to do and once you know exactly how you want them to fit, they are super easy and quick to put on.
Fit perfectly even without a belt. Very comfortable and flows material. High quality stitching
Purchased these in hopes for a experimental sock-like lightweight indoor shoes. Noticed quite quickly that due to its "rubber on sock" was quite prone to damage if not worn in water (like it is supposed to). Works extremely well for watersports
