THE J-LIFE ALL-NATURAL SHIKIFUTON IS AN AUTHENTIC JAPANESE FUTON
Years ago, we decided to offer Americans a true Japanese style mattress - one constructed of quality materials, without foam or innersprings, - pure and simple. So, we deconstructed Japanese shikibutons, talked to shikibuton master craftsmen in Japan, and developed the design of the J-Life Shikifuton.
True to Japanese custom, our futon is made from pure cotton. The J-Life Shikifuton has no wool, foam or innersprings.
The cover is 100% unbleached cotton duck. The fill is also made from 100% cotton for comfort and natural air-flow. In addition, this authentic Japanese futon meets US fire retardant standards by using a natural boron material.
Learn more about the complete Japanese sleep system over on our blog.
Ships within 24 hours (excluding weekends and holidays).
The J-Life Shikifuton is also available with a custom removable cover made of 100% cotton fabrics imported from Japan. We also offer a shikifuton protective cover for extra protection against dirt and moisture.
Please see our Shikifuton Care Guide and FAQs to learn more about caring for our Japanese futon mattresses.
FUTON SIZES
The J-Life Shikifuton is available in two thicknesses: a 4 inch option and a more traditional 3 inch. (In Japan, new shikibuton are about 3 inches thick. Our more popular 4 inch futon is made to accommodate the larger frames of American sleepers.)
J-Life Shikifutons are sized to fit American bed frames. Please note that Japanese style shikifutons are not meant for American futon frames. They require a flat solid surface such as a platform bed, tatami mat, or floor. Use our guide below to find the correct tatami mat size to go with your shikifuton:
*King size futons are made by placing two Twin XL futons side by side
Please Note: Due to compression caused by the packing and shipping process, futons may be several inches smaller than their actual size upon delivery until they have had time to fully expand. Please allow your shikifuton at least 1-2 weeks to expand to its actual size.

Very happy so far.
United StatesQuality has changed
Shipping was pretty quick. It did come with some of the tape peeling off the box and was easy to remove. So, transit was definitely a little rough. When I laid out the bed it’s cozy but I noticed the strings that hold it together left some bigger holes in the top fabric exposing a little bit of the interior. I plan on having a pad and some covers to protect it. Overall, it isn’t what I remember having bought this in the past. It’s fine but something for me to think about if I repurchase.
United StatesFuton
I love the futon. I was having a terrible waking up time, stiff, sore and asthma really strong, so I threw my memory foam away, and slept on the floor for 2 days while the futon arrived. Since then, I wake up with a clear head and continual cough has gone. Built a simple platform bed for it so the effect of sleeping on the floor is there, without actually sleeping on the floor, or getting a mat. Platform built out of non glue infested materials (wood).
United StatesStandard mattresses are too comfy or too hot. This mattress is juuuuust right. I still use it to this day, and I anticipate many more comfortable nights ahead.
