The Fundoshi Loincloth for Better Sleep

Modern take on traditional Japanese underwear

You have seen the armor of the samurai and the exquisite silk kimono of the barons and shogun. But what were the common people wearing back in medieval and early modern Japan? Believe it or not, from spring until winter, the men would go around only wearing a fundoshi loincloth and a loose jacket. Basically a piece of underwear, the fundoshi is one of the oldest clothes of the Japanese people and every few years, it gets reimagined for the next generation and the Fundoshi Loincloth for Better Sleep is one such example.

Sewn one by one, the Fundoshi Loincloth for Better Sleep is available in a wide palette of colors – nine to be exact! You can choose between navy, light gray, turquoise, orange, purple, blue, red, pink, or yellow and they all come in the same size: the actual loincloth is 30 x 90 cm (11.8 x 35.4") and the string that keeps it in place is 3 x 160 cm (1.2" x 5.2 ft), which is large enough for people with a waist up to 100 cm (39.4"). Easy to put on, this is the least restricting underwear you can find, which makes it an excellent sleep companion!
