What's "Wazarashi Cotton"?
In modern times the bleaching process involves dyeing and processing the fabric while stretching it through a machine.
However, the traditional manufacturing method, wazarashi, does not pull or stretch the cloth; instead, it is slowly and thoroughly processed for about three days in a cauldron, almost completely removing any impurities, without stressing the fiber.
To get the appearance of pure cotton wazarashi fabric, pigments / fats, impurities etc. attached to the cotton are removed, taking the textile's natural form to the very limit.
Each item may look slightly different from what you receive because this product is handmade.

FAQ
Q. Can I pick up my order when I visit Japan?
A. Yes you can. Please send us email for us to arrange it.

A. Yes they are. We don't use any chemical materials such as insecticides, toxic solvents and flame retardants. We sterilize our cotton by heat.
Q. How does futon smell like?
A. We can't say it smells nothing. It subtly smells of the oil of cotton. It's difficult to describe what it is like. It'll be removed eventually in a couple of weeks. Most of the people don’t mind it but some people who is sensitive to smell might mind.
Q. How long does a futon last?
A. Futon (shiki futon) lasts for 3 years and futon quilt (kake futon) lasts for 5 years in general. They eventually lose the softness by being pressed by body.
