Like sleeping in Japan!

Made to painstaking traditional Japanese specifications by an American manufacturer, the J-Life Shikifuton offers the ultimate comfort of a true shikibuton. This comes with a beautiful removable cover in 100% cotton imported from Japan fabric as pictured.

THE J-LIFE 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 shikifuton mattress uses Boron as a fire retardant.

The custom zippered removable cover fits over the 100% unbleached cotton duck mattress cover. The custom removable cover is made of high quality 100% cotton fabric imported directly from Japan and features traditional patterns.

The J-Life Shikifuton is available in two thicknesses, a four inch 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.)

Comfort level is firm. Click here for shikifuton care instructions.

Please allow 5 to 7 days for production before shipping (excluding weekends and holidays).

The J-Life Shikifuton is also available without a custom removable cover.

FUTON SIZES

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 or tatami or floor.

 

Pair your shikifuton with a tatami mat to ensure proper air circulation and to provide added comfort. Our tatami mats are the perfect base for a Japanese mattress.

*King size futons are made by placing two Twin XL futons side by side.

Traditional ShikiFuton

This was a traditional 3" shiki futon. Hard, and stiff, but exactly what was expected. Shipped well, got the package easily, and excited and sleeping well. Thank you!

Back pain relief

I love my new bed! After a few days of sleeping on the 4" mattress (and 2" tatami) my chronic back pain had already begun to noticeably lessen. I've been sleeping on it for over a month now and it's been really great. I do think I may get a second (3") shikibuton to stack when it gets a bit colder, but overall I'm super pleased. I like the custom cover fabric, but the zipper going down the length of the side is pretty difficult to wrestle with (I have a Full size and can't imagine how difficult the larger sizes would be). I plan to make a second cover like this one but with the closure on the end (width) of the mattress to make it easier to get on.

Very high quality

Very high quality futon. I ordered the queen size. The cover was hard to put but because the size of the futon, so you need to be two.
