【Kaya (Mosquito Net)】
---Kaya is the name of a coarsely woven fabric. Originally used as insect repellent fabric, it includes the character for "mosquito".
BAN INOUE's commitment is to 100% cotton, vibrantly colored kaya.

【Characteristics of Kaya Fabric】
---Kaya was originally hung as a mosquito net for sleeping.
It is a coarsely woven, well-ventilated fabric.
The manufacturing method involves weaving with wide spaces between the threads to allow air circulation, making it extremely light and flexible.
However, as it is a woven fabric, it does not stretch.

【Appeal of Kaya Fabric】
---When the "sizing" used during weaving falls off, the fibers of each individual thread spread out, revealing the natural softness of cotton.
Furthermore, as fine fibers intertwine, it transforms into an even more skin-friendly, soft, and airy material.
It can be safely used by those with sensitive skin and children.




Vibrant Colors
To bring out the beautiful and clean texture of kaya fabric, we are particular about dyeing it in traditional Japanese colors such as fuji-iro (wisteria color) and yamabuki-iro (kerria flower color).



Absorbent, Quick-Drying, Breathable
Kaya is excellent in absorbency, quick-drying properties, and breathability. Therefore, it quickly absorbs moisture, dries fast, and is hygienic as it is resistant to unpleasant odors.



Safe Natural Material, 100% Cotton
To bring out the softness of kaya, we use no synthetic fibers and 100% cotton. All manufacturing is also done in Japan.
