@ VP: hope my second post answer your question, yes, they do have yukata for men, mostly come with grey, black or blue colors.
@ Nobu and Kaori: Yes, among other reasons why I love Japan is the festivals. I do wish we can meet some time in a festival. Ukata? Hmmm, that's new for me. In the poster promoting this event, it's written with "yu" character. Any info for me, Guys?
