Small details about naptime bedding for nursery schools

Hello everyone, I'm Kaito Kanauchi, a staff member at Sleep Shop.

In this blog, we will introduce you to the little details behind Nemuriya's nap futons. This is a bit of a geeky story that we don't tell customers unless they ask, but we hope you will read to the end.

"Kise" - a traditional Japanese technique

"Kise" is a traditional Japanese technique, mainly used in making kimonos and yukatas.
When sewing fabric together, if the stitches are visible from the outside, it can look sloppy and with repeated use the stitches can wear down and cause the threads to break.

To avoid this, one side of the sewn fabric is folded slightly inward to hide the stitching and protect the sewing thread. This folded part is called "kise".

This technology strives to be both functional and aesthetically beautiful, and exudes the kind of consideration and care that is so characteristic of the Japanese.

Application to naptime blankets for nursery schools

Did you know that Nemuriya's naptime mattresses for nurseries also incorporate the "kise" technology?

You may not have many opportunities to take a close look at nap futons in your everyday life, but in fact, each futon is carefully crafted with a unique kimono lining.
