Embark on a visual feast with "NEKOYAKI," a masterpiece that transcends the boundaries between art and delectable cuisine. This design seamlessly fuses the adorable innocence of cats with the irresistible allure of takoyaki, creating a harmonious blend that is as charming as it is appetizing.

Imagine a world where cute, innocent cat faces take center stage, playfully adorned with the mouthwatering essence of takoyaki. These feline friends are not just ordinary cats; they're culinary connoisseurs, celebrating the art of deliciousness in every bite. The fusion of these two beloved elements — cats and takoyaki — is nothing short of "purrfection."

Just added our new overall design onto the website. This year, we made a new, improved version of the jumpsuit's overall design. In this new design, we are using the Koi print fabric with the Kamon patchwork. Also, we added more fabric and an adjustable shoulder strap for easier fitting. There are pockets for your phone & wallet. The adjustable length from the shoulder to the ankle is from 56 inches to 62 inches approximately. The measurement armpit to armpit is about 25 inches. Elastic at leg opening and inseam is 24 inches. This new sizing will make it suitable for most adults. Hope you will like our new creations.
