Gorone Kids Nap Futon - Cotton
The "Gorone" Nap Futon—Now in Kids’ Size!
The fan-favorite Gorone Nap Futon is now available in a dedicated size for children.
In Japan, there is a specific word for the art of informal relaxation: Gorone (pronounced go-ro-neh). It literally means to "flop down" and relax. For generations, the Japanese have mastered this style of unwinding. Whether lining up three zabuton cushions to watch TV or curling up with a favorite book, this "in-between" rest is considered a supreme everyday luxury.
Designed for Little Relaxers
Kids want to unwind, too! Whether it’s for a midday nap or a cozy spot to watch TV, this futon is a versatile companion. Measuring 55cm x 120cm (approx. 22" x 47"), its compact footprint allows it to be moved easily to any favorite corner of the house.
Thoughtful, Safe, and Portable
-
Safe Design: To keep things gentle on soft skin, we’ve replaced zippers with a simple overlap design secured by fabric ties.
-
Smart Storage: When it’s time to tidy up, simply roll the futon and secure it with the attached loops. It tucks away perfectly in a closet or on a shelf.
-
Beyond the Home: Lightweight and easy to carry, it is an ideal choice for nap time at daycare or preschool.

how to enjoy Kutsurogi
Relaxation in Every Style
Inspired by the Japanese word "goron" (ごろん)—the comforting feeling of flopping down to relax—this futon transforms a brief pause into an indulgent experience.
Far lighter and more adaptable than a conventional shiki futon, it unrolls effortlessly to form your personal haven of rest, anywhere in your home. Express your individual style by choosing from our collection of fabrics, beautiful hues, and timeless motifs.
A Rich Palette of Colors & Patterns
Personalize your Gorone with Takaokaya’s collection of nearly 60 cotton fabrics. Whether you prefer timeless solids, classic Japanese motifs, or modern Nordic prints, you can easily choose a style that complements your interior and personal taste.
Our solid fabrics feature Murazome, a signature uneven dyeing technique. By stripping color from the cloth while simultaneously applying new dye, this process creates a subtle, streaked texture—giving every fabric a unique depth and character.
Personalize Your Futon
Select from 3 distinct layouts to create your look:
- One-Color (Solid): Crafted with a single fabric throughout.
- Two-Tone: Customize the left and right halves with different colors or patterns.
- Reversible: Customize the front and back sides with different colors or patterns.
Details & Features
It features a washable cover, making maintenance quick and simple. Instead of a zipper, the cover wraps smoothly over the futon and ties securely with fabric ribbons.
When not in use, simply roll it up and fasten it using the attached ties for compact, space-saving storage.
Includes a Bonus Upper Sheet!
An upper sheet is a protective layer designed to slip directly over the main cover. Featuring top and bottom corner pockets, it glides on and off effortlessly. Whenever it gets dirty, simply slip it off for a quick wash to keep your sleeping space fresh and hygienic at all times.
To give you extra peace of mind, every Gorone Kids futon includes one complimentary upper sheet. Choose your favorite solid color to match your style! (Bonus upper sheets are available in solid-color options only)
