It's washable but gentle on the skin! Introducing "Washi Towel", a body towel made from "Washi" and Kosume Makai. This is a must-see for those who are "lost body towels" who haven't come across this.

Makai Kosume Japanese paper towel

A bath body towel that is roughly hand-knitted with Japanese paper. The front side is made of Japanese paper and the back side is made of cotton. The size is 25 x 100 cm, which is the same size as a general body towel.

Available in four colors: white, pink, light blue, and charcoal (black). A festive package that is perfect as a gift. The selling price on the official website is 1,320 yen (tax included).


The characteristic is the roughness of the eyes. It's not a net, but it's coarser than gauze. Thanks to that, the foaming is outstanding.


You can use the Japanese paper side when you want to wash it thoroughly, and the cotton side when you want to wash it softly. Paper is as comfortable to use as cloth and will not tear.



After use, rinse well, drain and dry in the shade on a towel rack. As it is knitted, avoid using a washing machine or dryer.


Nylon body towels are said to darken and harden the skin. However, cotton is too soft and unsatisfactory. If you are dissatisfied with the Japanese paper towel recommended for such people, please try it.
