For a yukata the obi jime is not used, but on regular kimono it makes it look better and tidier as well as keeping it together. The obi portrayed with the kimono looks like one of those snap-on types with a fixed knot.

Thank you for your help! Is the obi in the set 'authentic'? It seems easier because I have no experience with tying an obi, but I do want to be accurate and authentic.
