The Sakura Tenugui is a deluxe traditional Japanese hand cloth made from super-soft, highly absorbent cotton. Featuring an elegant small cherry blossom (Sakura) pattern, this versatile tenugui combines traditional Japanese style with the practical functionality needed for martial arts training and everyday use.

Available in Navy Blue, Green, Purple, Red, and Sky Blue, the Sakura Tenugui offers a choice of colours to suit individual preferences while retaining its distinctive Japanese aesthetic.

A Tenugui is a traditional Japanese hand cloth or lightweight towel. In Kendo, it is commonly worn around the head beneath the Men to absorb sweat during training. Tenugui are also widely used in other martial arts, often kept inside the Keikogi as a lightweight and convenient way to remove sweat during demanding training sessions.

Although thin and lightweight, the soft cotton fabric is highly absorbent and designed to dry quickly. Its slim construction allows it to fold neatly into a Keikogi, training bag, or luggage without taking up much space. Beyond martial arts, the Sakura Tenugui can be used as a hand towel, travel towel, training cloth, or general-purpose everyday cloth.

The Sakura (cherry blossom) pattern adds a distinctly Japanese character to this practical textile. Cherry blossoms are strongly associated with Japanese culture and are often appreciated for their beauty and symbolism, making this tenugui equally suitable for martial arts practitioners and anyone looking for a stylish traditional Japanese cloth.

  • Wash before first use to remove any excess dye or finishing residue.
  • Machine wash or hand wash in cool or lukewarm water.
  • Wash dark or brightly coloured Tenugui separately during the first few washes, as some colour bleeding may occur.
  • Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
  • Avoid high-temperature washing, which may cause slight shrinkage or affect the print.
  • Smooth out wrinkles by stretching the edges while the cloth is still wet.
  • Air dry naturally whenever possible. Hang or lay flat to dry.
  • Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, particularly with richly coloured or printed designs, as this may cause fading.


Important Note

Tenugui are traditionally unfinished along the cut edges. The edges may initially fray slightly after washing, this is normal. Simply trim any long loose threads if necessary; do not pull them.

Expect natural changes with use. Traditional tenugui can soften and develop a distinctive character over time
