SASAWASHI was founded as a reaction to the wastefulness and ephemeral lifespan of the textile industry. Made from absorbent washi (Japanese paper) threads infused with antibacterial kumazasa plant fibers, this innovative fabric contains natural deodorizing properties that prevent mildew growth and fiber deterioration. From room shoes to scrub towels, every piece in the Sasawashi collection stays true to its founding principles: comfort, longevity, and simplicity.
“From a desire to live a comfortable and healthy way of life, our products show a diligence in bringing you all the best characteristics of the unique SASAWASHI. What we take for granted today may become increasingly difficult tomorrow because of our changing environment & lifestyles. What is truly good is that which you will want to use for a lifetime. Our simple designs are a result of an emphasis on comfort and natural feeling while using our products. Strive to be better without changing. Our goal is dedication in creativity.”
