At SHIBAYA, we carry a wide range of casual textiles, focusing on natural fibers such as cotton and linen, from plain weaves, duck/canvas, and twill to brushed textiles and corduroy. From textiles that make the most of their natural texture, like sun-dried fabrics, to textiles with functional performance, you can choose according to the application and the look you want.
If you value softness against the skin and absorbency, cotton is a good choice; if you want the texture of flax-based material, linen is an option; and if you want warmth retention or moisture absorption and release, wool is a candidate. If you want to take advantage of lightness, strength, and abrasion resistance, choose nylon; if you need a firm texture, check canvas woven tightly with thicker yarn. Customer reviews mention a thickness with a soft feel, color tone, ease of handling, softness, and stretch.

QDo SHIBAYA textiles incur a cutting fee per meter, and will the textile come in one continuous piece?
For cut orders, because the cutting fee is set at 500 yen per meter, in principle the fabric will be arranged as one continuous piece whether it is 1 m or 10 m.
However, for long cuts such as 10 m, there may be a break in the middle, so please understand this in advance.
QCan I place an order for textile without any joins?
Cut-to-order quantities are possible, but for orders of 5 m or more, piece breaks may occur.
If there is a piece break in a cut order, we cut it a little longer.
Also, even for rolls, there may be piece breaks, so please place your order with some extra allowance (loss).
QI ordered the textile by roll, but isn’t the quantity the same as what I ordered?
When you order textile by roll, it is usually arranged as an estimated roll, so the quantity may be slightly above or below the quantity you ordered.
Therefore, if we need to change the quantity from what you ordered, we will notify you of the updated quantity by email each time.
If the quantity is greater, we will request additional payment for the difference; if the quantity is less, we will refund the difference within a few days after shipment is completed.
QI would like the test data for the textile.
support page, or please include it in the remarks field when placing your order. We will check with the manufacturer.
QThe color of the sample card swatch and the actual textile I ordered differ. Can it be exchanged?
There may be slight differences depending on the fiber material, and fiber products can vary in color from lot to lot. For that reason, we cannot offer an exchange for slight variations, but if the color difference is significant, we will consult with the manufacturer and arrange an exchange or other appropriate response.
