Know before you buy
Sasawashi is a unique Japanese textile made from a blend of kumazasa plant fibers and washi paper. It is prized for its natural ability to absorb moisture, resist odors, and prevent the growth of mildew.
Because it is a woven, thin-profile mat, it feels firmer and more structured than a plush cotton rug. The textured surface provides a gentle exfoliating sensation on your feet while remaining comfortable to stand on.
Yes. Sasawashi fabric is engineered to dry twice as fast as cotton, making it an excellent choice for high-humidity environments like bathrooms where traditional mats often stay damp.
To maintain the integrity of the woven fibers, machine wash the mat inside a garment bag. This prevents the fabric from snagging or fraying during the cycle.
No, it features a polyester non-slip backing designed to keep the mat securely in place on smooth bathroom surfaces, ensuring stability when you step out of the shower.
