We've dyed our Echigo Hemp Cotton Fundoshi with indigo and eco-friendly dyes using the shibori (tie-dye) technique. Please be aware that there may be subtle variations in color that are not apparent in the photos, and the shades may differ slightly from the images. Also, initially, there is a possibility of color transfer if washed with other items. Ideally, hand wash with a neutral detergent, such as during a bath, and after the color fading stops, place it in a laundry net and wash it in the washing machine with other items. After washing, shape it and hang it to dry in the shade. Please purchase with the above in mind. 【Features】 Uses a 'fluffy and smooth' and soft, lightweight, high-quality hemp cotton fabric made of 55% hemp and 45% cotton. The stretch fabric is popular with those who do a lot of work, and it's durable enough for heavy rotation. This fabric doesn't fray, so we simply left the edges raw. Leaving the edges raw allows for faster drying and prevents the growth of bacteria. The lines on both ends curl without fraying, giving a natural and wild impression. If you feel the front drape is too long, you can self-cut it with scissors (it won't fray). 【Material and Details of the String】 The string material uses carefully selected, sturdy, and soft cotton. The string width gradually narrows to reduce bulkiness in the front drape. 【Size】 Width: Approximately 30-32cm Length: Approximately 108-110cm String Length: Approximately 155cm String Width: Approximately 2.5cm (gradually narrows) (Size after washing. There is some shrinkage initially.) Made in Japan 【Notes】 ● Wash by hand, or if using a washing machine, use a laundry net. ● Due to the characteristics of the stretchy hemp cotton fabric, shape it and hang it to dry in the shade after washing. ● Thick hemp threads may be woven into the fabric, or dark spots may occasionally appear, but do not pull on them. ● The traditional weaving method results in uneven warp and weft threads, but please understand this as a vintage-like characteristic. ● If you cut it with scissors to adjust the length, please wash it once beforehand. ● Due to the elasticity, the size表記 is not exact.
