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.

We are very pleased with the beautiful and comfortable shiki futon that the team at Takaokaya was able to prepare for us at our arrival in the Kansai area. Thank you to all of you for the great service provided to us !
Thank you Takaokaya. We hesitated some time before buying futons, but you made our choice a good one ! We needed some nights to get used to it, but eventually we love sleeping on our futon+tatami.
Plus, you hand written letter sent with the two futons was an appreciated kind thougth :)
Gonna keep this short and just say that if you're on the fence about buying, TAKE THE LEAP!! My wife and I have had ours for the past few months and we couldn't be happier. My wife used to experience chronic neck and back pain regularly. For the first few days of trying the bed out, her pain got worse (we think her body was adjusting) and after the third night, her pain began to subside. Now, a few months in, we both sleep pain-free nearly every night. This has been an absolute game changer, and we're so tremendously grateful for the team of artisans at Takaokaya who created it for us.
If you are considering purchasing from this website, think no more. Wonderful people. Excellent service. Outstanding communication. You cannot find better supplier.
