This summer blanket made of pure cotton is extremely light, highly absorbent and very soft. Murakami Pile has taken the structured waffle piqué, which is usually found in the bathroom and sauna, into the bedroom, where the light, loosely woven fabric makes an excellent comforter for the summer. Thanks to its distinctive plastic honeycomb structure, the fabric forms climate chambers and is therefore pleasantly airy against the skin. At the same time, the enlarged surface can absorb a lot of moisture and dry quickly. This makes it the ideal alternative to an empty comforter cover or top sheet as a summer comforter. The size of 130 × 210 centimetres is chosen accordingly; however, as is typical for waffle piqué, the fabric shrinks during the first wash (to approx. 125 × 200 cm) and only then does it acquire its relief-like structure.

The summer blanket is made of soft cotton and is very light despite its voluminous fabric with a total weight of 700 grams. This makes it just as easy to take with you to the sauna or the beach.

60% of towels in Japan are made in the Japanese town of Imabari, in Ehime Prefecture, in the north of Shikoku Island. There are 4,000 looms per less than 160,000 inhabitants here, including over 120 companies that are allowed to produce towels under the "Imabari Towel" quality label. The water used for bleaching the textiles comes from underground flowing springs that are particularly low in lime and heavy metals, especially from the Sōja River - a circumstance that has indirectly promoted the concentration of companies producing bathroom textiles. The use of the soft water makes the towels particularly pliable and at the same time allows dyes to penetrate deep into the textile fibers. The result: exceptionally soft and intensely colored linens. It has always been a tradition in the region around Imabari to support pilgrims who are on the 1,200 km long Shikoku pilgrimage route (one of the most important Buddhist pilgrimage routes) with food, money, but also just towels on their journey - and this hospitality should also be reflected in the texture of the textiles produced here.

One of the mandatory quality criteria for "Imabari Towels" concerns the ability to absorb water: a 1 × 1 cm piece of the fabric must be able to sink to the bottom in the water within five seconds - an indication that the towel is able to absorb water and also other liquids without prior washing. Accordingly, Imabari Towels are characterized by absorbing moisture extremely quickly.
