--- About Shiki Futon ---

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 the place which also acts as decoration. 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.

Embrace the Best Sleep with Shiki Futon

Whether you choose the traditional approach of sleeping directly on the floor or the modern method of combining a futon with a mattress, Takaokaya's shiki futon offer comfortable sleeping experience.

Sleeping on the floor

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.

WHY SO GOOD?

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.

about long pillow

The shape of the Long Pillow was inspired by the traditional Japanese straw bag used in the past to transport rice grains called the kome dawara (米俵). It is perfect for sleeping or as a footrest. Adjust the height of the pillow according to your preference to suit your comfort level of support. To lower its height, loosen the string, and to increase its height, tie the string tighter. 

Filling Options

We have 3 fillings options available. The hard polyethylene pipe is the original filling which has been a long-time favorite amongst Takaokaya customers who prefer firm pillows. For those who prefer a softer pillow, choose the soft polyethylene pipe. If you are looking for fillings that are natural more eco-friendly and has a balance of softness and firmness, we offer buckwheat filling.

Adjust the height and shape

Have the flexibility of adjusting the firmness and height of your long pillow by either tightening or loosening the ties on each end. Need taller and firmer pillow? Tie them tightly. Need lower and softer pillow? Tie them loosely.

Good combination with shiki futon

The size of the pillow is the perfect fit for our shiki futons. Due to its length, you can choose to sleep on your back or your side.
