The J-Life Shikifuton is a traditional Japanese-style mattress made by an American manufacturer to Japanese specifications. It uses a 100% unbleached cotton duck shell filled with American-grown cotton, with no foam, wool or innersprings, and comes with a removable 100% cotton cover in imported Japanese fabric. It suits shoppers who want a firm, low, floor-sleeping futon that folds away, and who accept that it needs regular airing and sunning. Against foam and innerspring futons it is firmer and more breathable but offers less cushioning and needs more care.

Owners of J-Life shikifutons generally describe a genuinely firm, traditional sleep surface and praise the cotton materials and removable cover. Complaints center on the firmness, the need to air and rotate the futon, and filling that packs down with use.
The J-Life Shikifuton is a Japanese-style floor mattress made in the US to traditional Japanese specifications. It has no foam, wool or innersprings. The cover is 100% unbleached cotton duck, and the fill is 100% American-grown cotton. Naturally derived boron is used as a fire retardant to meet US fire retardant standards.
This version comes with a custom zippered removable cover, handmade to fit the mattress snugly. The cover is 100% cotton fabric imported from Japan. The Mori Green Palm (森) pattern is a vintage-inspired landscape of hand-drawn palms in soft forest green and natural neutral tones.
The comfort level is firm. A shikifuton is meant for a flat, solid surface such as a tatami mat, a floor or a platform bed. It is sized to fit American bed frames but is not meant for American-style futon frames. Using it with a tatami mat allows air circulation.
