An amazing gift from daughter to father!
We received a delighted message from Ms. H in Tokyo, who gave an original apron to her father who lives in Saitama!
We heard about how this 'One of a Kind, Moving Gift from Daughter to Father' was created, and would like to share it with you.

"When I asked my father what he wanted for his birthday, he said, 'I want an apron.'
He started making soba noodles as a hobby in February of last year, but found that it was a bit restrictive since he was wearing a women's apron.
I went to Kappabashi and looked around a few stores, but I couldn't find anything I wanted as a gift.
I was at a loss as to what to do when I found a website specializing in aprons on the Internet.

"I'm so into it that I even attend soba-making classes.
I gave this original apron as a gift, hoping it would make making soba noodles even more enjoyable.
I wanted to surprise people by not telling them what it was, but I also wanted to create a design that would satisfy the person who would use it.
I consulted with my father about the design in advance, and we created an apron that could encompass all of my hobbies, including making miso paste and calligraphy.

"He was excited to wait until it arrived, and when it did arrive he was so happy he immediately sent me a picture. He was also happy with the Oyaji Box and the carrier.
I think it was a very good present.
Thank you for making such a wonderful apron. My father has written words of appreciation on his blog, so please read them if you have time.
*We will post some excerpts from my father's diary.
"That's an unexpected joy, I'm looking forward to it!
Check out the sample order image that my daughter showed me.
I only asked for a few minor modifications, so I knew in advance what the apron design would be.
But I'm excited until I get the real thing...
And today's pick up.
