What you’ll find

What Usui Orifu is known for

Usui Orifu has woven Ise cotton, a soft, breathable fabric first produced in the region during the mid-Edo period, on vintage Toyoda shuttle looms at its Tsu workshop. The mill turns its own bolts into kimono, pouches, and other everyday textiles rather than selling raw cloth alone.
