Lightweight but provides the same warmth as down
Add the warmth of down to a classic coat
Repels water and is wrinkle resistant. Special coating makes it 20 times more water resistant than an umbrella
Because it is covered with air, it only takes 5mm to provide the warmth of down.
The secret to its lightness is the special nut ``Kapok''
Kapok cotton is a special material that is 1/8th the weight of cotton and does not require the use of animal fur or feathers or cutting down trees.
Lightweight but provides the same warmth as down
Kapok has a special structure that allows it to absorb moisture and release heat, a function called ``hygroscopic heat generation.'' Its function is comparable to that of down, so it is also called down that grows on trees.
Achieving exquisite balance using carefully selected Japanese threads
Japanese special thread. Adopts a special technology called split yarn, which consists of one nylon and four polyester fibers. The unique bulge created by combining nylon or polyester alone cannot be achieved. Japan's ability to make good use of the differences in shrinkage between different materials is a thread technique that we would like to pass on to future generations.
Sustainable “ethical down kapok” made possible with the latest processing technology
Since kapok is a fruit of a tree, there is no need to cut down trees or obtain animal feathers.
However, commercialization has been difficult until now because the fibers are extremely short and difficult to make into thread. We use sheets that have been jointly developed with major companies over many years.
