Western Shizuoka Prefecture was encouraged to produce cotton and weave it as a side job for farmers. In the Meiji period, Sakichi Toyoda (now Toyota) and Michio Suzuki (now Suzuki) developed the automatic loom, and the region flourished as a cotton textile production center. We still use looms from the mid-1900s to slowly weave two bolts (approximately 27 meters) per day. The resulting fabric has a soft texture similar to handwoven fabric.

・About Enshu Cotton Tsumugi: A traditional Shizuoka textile that has been passed down since the Edo period. In western Shizuoka, farmers were encouraged to grow cotton and weave it as a side job, and in the Meiji period, automatic looms were developed by Sakichi Toyoda (now Toyota) and Michio Suzuki (now Suzuki), and the area developed as a cotton textile production center.
Even today, looms from the mid-1900s are used, and the textile is slowly woven at a rate of two bolts (about 25m) per day. This results in a soft texture similar to that of handwoven fabric.
