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 bought two shiki single (100 x 210 cm) futon mattresses and cover sets in Ichimatsu Green and Ichimatsu Red. We received both mattresses in about three weeks. We've enjoyed them and have found them to be well-made and what we had expected. The designs/colors of the fabric were even more pretty in person and we would recommend them to anyone interested in this style of sleeping arrangement. The only less positive aspect was the cost of shipping to the US, which was a couple hundred dollars. However, this was something we had anticipated and it's expected that shipping larger packages across the globe will cost a decent amount. In the end, we felt the cost of shipping was worth it for the quality of the product we were receiving.
I love my shikifuton and the cover. Absolutely beautiful!
Congratulations to all the team.
The details and care given to the product is high level.
Thank you for making the best bed out there.
The delivery was quick and well packed.
I will take care of the futon as it deserves.

We are so pleased with the whole experience of buying our new beds! Starting from the fact that it is a family-run business with great costumer service. We got lots of good advice and communication was clear and quick through the chat!
The shipment was easily arranged according to our needs and it went very quickly!
We got out shikibutons, pillows, covers and tatami mats (which smell so nice!!) yesterday. Everything was perfectly packed... It felt like Christmas in September!
The quality of the fabrics is beautiful. They have great colors and are very soft to the touch. Our first night sleeping on our shikibuton was great. Everything felt fresh, light and soft! So good!
It was also great to regain some space in our bedroom... There is much air there now!
We are coming Tokyo and Kyoto in November and we are so looking forward to visiting your shop!
Thank you so much for the experience!
Warm greetings from Malmö, Sweden!
