Even in Japan, there are only a handful of factories that can dye cotton fabric such a beautiful, deep color. This elegant cover is produced using superior Japanese dyeing technology and sewing techniques. The cover can be washed at home. (We do not recommend using tumble driers as they can cause loss of shape and shrinkage.)

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Needs multi-lingual text, but great with proper care.
  

*by A***Y on Reviewed in the United States on 19 February 2019*

As another reviewer has noted, it will shrink (correction: CAN shrink—see second paragraph). This will make a Twin XL (83” long) shikibuton a tight fit, lying not quite flat with a bug bump in the middle. English language support on the tags and literature is minimal, but I suspect that somewhere in the Hiragana text is a warning that the fabric is old-school cotton—NOT pre-shrunk—with apposite care guidelines, so those of us who aren’t Japanese-literate miss out on that critical information.Solution: Launder it so it won’t shrink, like your grandmother would have back in the day before pre-shrunk fabrics were commonplace—that is, do not use any heat. After mine shrunk, I ordered a second: Can confirm that if hand-washed (or machine-washed on a gentle/“delicates” cycle) with the coldest water possible, then either line dried or tumble dried with NO HEAT, it will NOT shrink.If there were adequate literature to prevent user-error for we Americans who are unaccustomed to traditional fabrics, this product would be worthy of 5 stars: It’s soft, smooth, comfortable, and easy to dry-maintain (use a vacuum and/or lint brush).Other than adding more complete care instructions/warnings, all I would change is that the zip closure should extend around at least one of the short sides—with the opening only on one long side, it can be a wrestling match getting a shikibuton into it without a second pair of hands to assist.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A surprising win in the midst of so much ass garbage.
  

*by S***A on Reviewed in the United States on 23 February 2021*

I purchased this for my son's birthday to cover the grass mat itself (we didn't get the cushion, as a true stoic needs no such luxury, obviously), and it worked brilliantly. I washed it before use (in cold water, recklessly dried on low despite directions not to dry), and it was a perfect fit!  My son is 6' 3 and both the mat & cover were plenty long.  I'm rather stunned it all worked out so well, frankly, as I've grown so accustomed to things going to crap in 2020 and following.

### ⭐ 







  
  
    Cover shrank after just 1 wash (line dried) and doesn’t fit
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on 24 August 2018*

TL;DR: This cotton cover shrinks!!Bought this cover as it’s one of the very few options that fit the size of the twin XL shikibuton that I have. I even bought it from the same vendor that sells the futon mattress and tatami that I bought.I was very careful not to dry the mattress cover in a dryer and only line dried it. After 1 wash it shrank in length and now my futon mattress would not fit inside.Now I’m stuck with a cover I cannot use and it doesn’t fit anything else.I do NOT recommend this item.
