The J-Life Shikifuton is a traditional Japanese-style mattress made in the US 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 people who want a firm, low, floor-sleeping futon and are willing to air and rotate it. Against foam futons and innerspring mattresses it is firmer and simpler, but it has no built-in support layers and needs regular sunning and flipping to stay fresh.
