[Onsenshu Towel] Sheer Gauze (Gauze & Pile) Club

Although it is a little long and thin, it has just the right amount of volume and is easy to use.

This is an example of one delivery. <Aqua>

This is what it looks like when you wring out a wet towel and hang it out to dry. It is made of a combination of multiple gauze and pile weaves, and when it gets wet it has a more striped look.

Available in four colors (from left): white, aqua, blue, and navy.

It will be delivered wrapped in a paper band, so it can be given as a gift as is.

[Characteristics of bath towels] ● 1. Thin... Easy to wash the body (easy to lather soap) and easy to rinse. They are thin because they are easy to wring out and dry. ● 2. Long... A little longer than a face towel, they are easy to hold by both ends (easy to grip because they are thin!) and to use for scrubbing your back. (Perhaps a remnant of tenugui culture?) Just a little longer makes them easy to wrap around your head. (Important) ● 3. Compact... They are thin and light, so they are great not only for public baths and hot springs, but also for taking a few to the gym or trekking. It's also nice that you can easily hang them up in your room when you're traveling.

To use a towel in the bath, it's important that it's easy to wring out. This towel is really easy to wring out!

It is a combination of multiple gauze and pile weaves. It has a deep texture.

The photo shows two types of towels from the Onsenshu Towel series: washi matou (waffle) and sheer gauze (gauze & pile).

[Onsenshu Project] Onsen towels were born from Japan's unique bath culture. We reexamined the ease of use and comfort of these thin towels, learning from the past. We went back to the origins of the towels in Senshu, where they originated, and named them "Onsenshu towels." This project aims to spread and communicate Japan's bath culture through towels. That's the Onsenshu Project. They are available for rental and sale at public baths all over Japan, and events are also popular.

[LOVE Local] Senshu, Osaka (now Izumisano City) is a towel production area that has been producing towels for over 130 years, using the abundant water flowing from the Izumi Mountains as a resource. Towel production uses a large amount of water and also produces a large amount of wastewater. However, when doing so, the water is filtered to a higher standard than the regulations, returning it to clean water and discharging it into Osaka Bay. Protecting water and making it in Senshu, the birthplace of Made in Japan towels. Senshu towels have lived with water and will continue to live with water. It's nice. [LOVE Cuiture] In the early Meiji period, before towels were imported to Japan, "tenugui" was used in public baths and other places. After further research, the first "pile towel" was born in Japan in 1887. Domestic production of towels began in Senshu and became established in people's lives. Then, during the post-war reconstruction period, as the entertainment culture of play, sightseeing, and lodging became widespread, towels with the names of XX hot springs and XX inns began to be made, and production of Senshu towels increased. This is said to be the beginning of the so-called "hot spring towels."
