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.

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.

Having a wonderful sleep

Everything went smoothly with Takaokaya!
Even though my country was not on their shipping list, they have been very fast in accomodating this. Their customer support was extremely fast and friendly, helping me on every step.
I was delighted to receive the futon with a handwritten note and the signatures of the workers involved in the process. It really is a masterfully made product.
I have now been sleeping on the futon for three weeks and every morning, I am sad that I have to get up. I am having the most relaxed sleep and wake up well rested.
Thanks to everyone that made my dream ... a dream!

It was our pleasure to handcraft sweet dreams for you to enjoy in Slovenia, Sonja!
We are happy to know that you are resting well with your Shiki Futon.

Fantastic - Take the plunge, buy a futon!

It's been fourteen years since I was last in Japan, but I have never forgotten the experience of sleeping on the futon. I've been sleeping on the floor all these years, but not in quite the same style and luxury. This shiki futon from the professionals at Takaokaya is worth every penny and I only wish I had purchased one sooner. The quality is impeccable. It is very beautiful, very comfortable and relaxing, and I love the morning and evening ritual of putting it out and taking it up. I highly recommend to anyone considering it to go for it! You won't regret it. Thank you everyone at Takaokaya! Sending much love from Virginia!

P.S. the shipping time was so fast!

It makes us happy to know that we were able to re-create the comfort you remembered from sleeping on a futon when you were in Japan, and deliver that experience to you in Virginia! Thank you for the endorsement, Jacob. It is much appreciated!

Please enjoy your handcrafted futon for a long time!
