Kimono Rental near Kaminarimon — Ennichi Kaminarimon Store

The Kaminarimon store is the closer of our two Asakusa shops to the Kaminarimon side. It is three minutes on foot from exit A4 of Asakusa Station on the Asakusa Line, and four minutes from exit 1 on the Ginza Line. Our main store is eight minutes from that same A4 exit, so if you arrive on either of these two lines, this shop saves you about five minutes each way.

Which station should I use?

Two lines reach us.

From Haneda Airport or the Oshiage side, take the Asakusa Line to Asakusa Station and leave by exit A4: three minutes on foot. From Ginza, Ueno or Shibuya, take the Ginza Line to Asakusa Station and leave by exit 1: four minutes. Either way you are dressed and walking within a few minutes of the station.

One warning. Several stations in Asakusa share the name, on different lines, and they are not the same building. The Tsukuba Express Asakusa Station is somewhere else entirely — if you are arriving on that line, our main store is closer.

Which of the two stores should I book?

Decide by the line you arrive on and by where you want to be once you are dressed.

If you are coming in on the Asakusa Line or the Ginza Line and want to be walking towards Kaminarimon and Nakamise straight after your fitting, book here. If you are coming in on the Tsukuba Express, or you want to take your time over a formal set, the main store is reached by three lines and suits you better.

Whichever you pick, the clothes you change out of and your day bag are kept at the shop free of charge while you are out, so you only carry what you want in your hands. Large suitcases are the exception — those go in a coin locker or an ecbocloak drop-off before you arrive.

What can I rent here?

Ennichi rents ten styles in all and the prices are the same at both Asakusa stores. Komon starts at ¥6,000, a lace kimono or a short-sleeve furisode at ¥7,000, men’s kimono at ¥8,000 and children’s kimono at ¥5,500. Among the formal sets, furisode starts at ¥25,000, homongi and colour or black tomesode at ¥16,000, and iromuji at ¥13,000.

Each price covers the kimono, a bag, shoes and basic hair styling. Make-up can be added for ¥4,500 per person and has to be booked in advance.

How do bookings and cancellations work?

Guests with reservations are dressed first. Walk-ins are usually possible, but on a Saturday morning they can mean a wait.

The reservation deposit is ¥1,000 for one to four guests and ¥2,000 for five to eight; the booking is confirmed once it is paid. Cancellations and date changes are free until 20:00 the day before your visit. Arriving more than 30 minutes after your slot may mean we cannot dress you.

Same-day returns close at 17:00.
