Standard uniform of portable shrine bearers (for both men and women).The headband may be tied at the front or back of the head. It may also be tied on the head like a bonnet. There is a variety of ways of tying the headband.
The happi coat bears the name of the parish or district the person belongs to. The same name is displayed on the respective portable shrine. The shorts are white and skintight. Worn by both men and women. Also called Han-momo or Han-momohiki. The white tabi (sock-like shoe) has a rubber sole.

Street in front of Kichijoji Station.
All the mikoshi have gathered on this street in front of Kichijoji Station.
On one end was this stage and lantern bearers representing all the mikoshi groups.
Taiko drummers
Then one after another, all the mikoshi came up to the stage.
They pass through the lanter bearers and go in front of the stage. I guess to pose for the photographers. ダイヤ街
