ALL MADE BY HAND

why is our shiki futon so comfortable?

We place great emphasis on and take extreme care during the stuffing process because it determines the comfort level as well as the longevity of the finished products. Our craftsmen work meticulously to ensure that the futon can retain and maintain its shape and fluffiness with daily use. To make the futons, we use many layers of cotton filling, piling layer after layer to the center of the futon repeatedly. The watoji stitch is then used to secure the cotton filling in place which also acts as decorations. Though the process is tedious, our craftsmen at Takaokaya, desire to create the most comfortable futons, so that our users can enjoy true relaxation for a good night’s rest. Every night, you will be smiling as you feel your body unwinding and melting away the stresses of the day when you lay down on your Takaokaya futon for the best sleep ever.

Futon Stuffing In Action

To stuff the futon, our craftsmen have to arrange large sheets of cotton before tearing them manually into the shape and size of the futon.

Secrets of 100% cotton filling

SECRET 1

the comfort of the cotton filling

Handcrafted using traditional techniques passed down for generations and modern innovations, Takaokaya’s futons are the perfect combination of pleasant firmness for spine support, and pillowy cushioning to cradle your body to enable better sleep so you can wake up feeling refreshed the next day. Shiki futon can be used on the floor or if you are not used to sleeping on the floor, you can put it on top of your mattress for added comfort and relaxation.

SECRET 2

excellent moisture absorption, heat retention and resilience

As cotton fibers are hollow and have a natural twist structure, our futons have excellent moisture absorption in the summer heat and cozy in the winter chill, making them suitable for all seasons. Our futons also have good resilience due to our choice selection of cotton. Sunning your futon regularly not only helps to fluff up your futon but also disinfect it. The cotton filling we used for stuffing Shiki Futon is specially selected so that our futons are plushy and yet firm to provide ample support for a healthy spine.

Wonderful Quality!

I ordered two twin shiki futons for my kids, and they love them. My son says it's like sleeping on a cloud. Very fine craftsmanship, all natural materials, and very well packaged. It also came with a hand written note that was a very sweet personal touch. Thank you Takaokaya! You will be my go to for our futons from now on.

Your review made our hearts and faces smile Cheryl. We are so glad that your kids are loving the Shiki Futons and most importantly, for that vote of confidence in our products. :)

Happy Kutsurogi!
