Our brand uses 100% Kurume Kasuri which is a traditional textile made of 100% cotton, from the southern part of Fukuoka in Japan. Kurume Kasuri has a 220-year history. We use Kurume Kasuri which is woven by Shimogawa Orimono located in Yame City. At Shimogawa Orimono, the threads and patterns are carefully adjusted by craftsmen on Kasuri looms which have been improved based on the TOYOTA-style power looms of the 1950s. These looms weave more slowly than a modern high-speed loom, which gives Kurume Kasuri a wonderful texture and makes it durable.

１．Comfortable to wear 100% cotton, excellent texture. It is cool in summer (breathability) and warm in winter (heat retention). For example, on a dry airplane, it is more comfortable than synthetic fibers. Also, when it is difficult to adjust the temperature, it will wrap against your skin warmly and softly.
２．Compact to pack and wrinkle-resistant It doesn’t take up much space in your luggage. Even if you fold or roll it up, due to its durability, it will be completely fine.
３．Easy to maintain You can wash it in your washing machine at home. Furthermore, you can easily wash it while traveling and it will be dry the next day (quick drying).
４．Durable and long-lasting Compared to today's high-speed looms, it is woven more slowly, resulting in a strong and durable, high quality fabric. Of course, while you are out on your exciting adventure, you can be confident that our products will be able to withstand most unexpected accidents such as falls and scrapes.
