Thumbs up Wafu

Try Tozando's sister store, Wafu-living. They have a great selection of tabi and zori.

Default waraji

Not sure on that one, as my knowledge on waraji is probably as limited as yours. I thought wafu had something about tying them. Try asking one of the e-budo members living in Japan, they may know or could refer you.

This should help:

How to wear waraji.



They have a series of illustrations of tying the knot, except for the last step of tying around the ankle, which you can figure out from the photo.

HTH.
