The best part of this heavyweight trim is its authentic Japanese heritage and remarkable structural integrity. This tatami edge tape, traditionally used to bind and protect the edges of tatami mats, brings genuine cultural craftsmanship to your modern projects. Woven in Kojima, Kurashiki—a city globally renowned for textile excellence—this specialized jacquard fabric trim holds its shape beautifully and resists fraying, making it ideal for creators seeking durable, tactile materials with real substance.

• Width: Approximately 8cm; Length: Approximately 10m
• Material: Approximately 48% polyethylene, 1% polypropylene, 51% polyester
• Usable on both sides; medium thickness with excellent natural support
• Care: Do not iron or wash; avoid high temperatures, moisture, and UV rays to prevent shrinkage or discoloration
• Made in Japan (Kojima, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture)

Color and pattern may vary slightly depending on the production lot. Please note that monitor settings and room lighting may affect how the color appears in your space. This specialized blend is designed specifically for crafting rather than garment care, so gentle handling will keep your materials in pristine condition.

This authentic material opens endless possibilities across multiple crafting disciplines. Use it as a sturdy accent for bag making and sewing—perfect for tote bag straps, crossbody bands, and decorative gussets. For pouches and wallets, the ideal width and stiffness create durable zip pouches and cardholders with crisp, professional shapes. Bookbinding enthusiasts will love creating textured book covers and junk journal spines, while miniature collectors will find it the most authentic edge trim for 1:12 scale Japanese washitsu dioramas and architectural models. The long woven edges are perfectly finished, and cut ends can be easily folded in, bound with bias tape, or carefully heat-sealed for clean finishes.
