Why are we doing?

From the era of making a lot to the era of "careful spinning".
　
Our manufacturing at the Masuhisa Dyeing and Weaving Research Institute began about 50 years ago with an encounter with the colors of nature.
　
During the period of high economic growth, mass production was the norm.
The founder, Masuhisa Hirota, who ran a textile business, was fascinated by the "natural color" he suddenly saw in a corner of a factory.
It was a soft, deep, natural color of life that synthetic dyes do not have.
　
"This color gently wraps people's lives and hearts."
When I felt that way, I wanted to value "how to make things" rather than "making a lot of things".
　
"What do you really want to value?"
After asking himself, Hirota gave up his business, re-learned plant dyeing and hand-spinning, and started his own classroom.
　
Ten years after starting the class, Hirota moved to a rural village in China and worked with the local people to create a system that would consistently carry out everything from cotton cultivation to hand-spinning and hand-weaving.
Little by little, he and his colleagues expanded their manufacturing that valued the warmth of human hands and the blessings of nature rather than efficiency.
　
　
　

What are we doing?

Making cloth from land that has not used pesticides for more than 100 years in harmony with nature.
　
The cotton we use is grown on land that has never been pesticide-free for more than 100 years.
Neither pesticides nor chemical fertilizers have entered the soil, and cotton grows quietly in the rhythm of nature.
　
Shandong Province has long been a producer of wheat, garlic, and cotton. Taking advantage of the fact that insects do not come to grow garlic, cotton is made from garlic behind-the-scenes.
The only tools used are hoes, sickles, and other tools that are handled by human hands. In a land where pesticides and fertilizers have never been used before, agriculture is carried out according to the 24 solar terms.
　
Seeds sown in spring will bloom at the end of summer, and in autumn they will become cotton balls.
Gala spinning, which is harvested and spun slowly over time, allows air to enter the center of the fibers, resulting in a soft and soft yarn.
The goodness of cotton harvested without the use of fertilizers or pesticides is reflected in the comfort when applied to the skin.
The products of the Masuhisa Dyeing and Weaving Research Institute, which are made by hand, are 80% finished products, so to speak.
The remaining 20% gradually develops its flavor as it is used, blends into the skin and hands, and becomes a finished product over time.
　
　
Photo: Contract farmer's field. Under the blessings of nature and Mother Earth, it takes six months to turn into cotton.
　
The harvested cotton is not twisted, but is made into yarn using "gala spinning", which has a softness close to that of hand-spun.
Then, they dye it with natural plants and trees, and slowly weave it on an old-fashioned loom.
Thus, a piece of cloth is born.
　
Rather than convenience and speed, "ease" and "certainty".
We are carefully making fabrics that are in harmony with nature and close to the mind and body one by one today
　
　
Photo: The "gala spinning machine" is called gala spinning because of the rattling sound of the spinning wheel. Fluctuations in the thickness of the yarn and expressions that cannot be produced by machine spinning are created.

Commitment to the product

Fabric products that take advantage of the oil content of cotton and the fluff of fibers
　
The cloth gently spun and woven on a gala spinning machine retains the natural oil content of cotton contained in plant fibers and the fluff of the fibers.
It is resistant to washing, and the strength of the fibers increases when cotton is wet.
It does not generate static electricity like chemical fibers, so it does not cling to clothes or causing tingling discomfort.
You can use it for a long time by using soap without soap or without synthetic detergents.
　
　
"Japanese Spinning 30×995"
A long-selling product of the Masuku Dyeing and Weaving Research Institute.
It is an easy-to-use washcloth size, and the uses are endless, such as for washbasing, bathing, hanging on pillows, or wrapping around your neck.
When washing your body, it is important to wet it thoroughly without soap and rub it gently.
　
　
"Gala-spun body mittens", "Gala-spun moist mini mittens"
Bath time only. Just add a little hot water and the fibers will remove sebum stains well. It is gentle on the skin and easy to use in the hand, so it is also used in the field of baby care and nursing care.

Testimonials from Buyers
Can I remove makeup with this??? I was skeptical, but he took it up beautifully. I was a little worried, so I tried using it by gently stroking it. It is strange that there is a moisturizing sensation on the skin after washing. I am happy with the feeling that my skin is plump.
　
・I learned about this product from a magazine. I was curious because I wanted to try to live an eco-friendly life, so I inquired by e-mail in advance about how to use it, and I was politely taught. I've been using it for more than a month since I bought it, and I like it very much because it cleans without detergent, my hands don't get rough, it's environmentally friendly, and it's all good! If you are worried about dirt, you can boil and disinfect it.
　
・It is very comfortable to wear the moment you wear it. I felt as if I was being enveloped. I suddenly became cold and couldn't continue to wear layers, but this one gradually warms up when I wear it, even if my feet are cold.
