Discover the Haramaki
The Happy Belly haramaki is a soft-touch fabric band that collects body heat and prevents sudden changes in temperature, providing a pleasant feeling of sustained hug.
Japanese tradition
The word 'Hara-Maki' comes from Japanese: the hara is the central part of the body (the trunk) and maki means roll or roll.
The origin of the haramaki goes back to the Shinto rituals of the Japanese Empire. When a soldier went to fight, he received a senninbari or belt from the women of the family and the village; Together they contributed to sew it with a stitch until they completed "the belt of 1,000 points." The senninbari provided warmth to the soldier and served as a protective amulet against the dangers of war.
Nowadays, wearing a haramaki around the waist also conveys confidence and seclusion while providing numerous health benefits. At Happy Belly Barcelona we have adapted the Japanese pattern to turn it into an original fashion accessory that can be worn 24 hours a day and combined with all kinds of clothing.
