About this rope
Discover our signature jute rope — lightweight, easy to handle, with a consistent twist tailored for shibari folks.
Available as a single-ply 3 strand 6mm rope, it comes in a 200-meter spool. This is well suited to those inclined to treat their own set of ropes. Untreated jute, while stiffer, requires careful handling, and it's not uncommon to encounter minor imperfections. Should you encounter any, we recommend cutting around them. For beginners, pre-cut untreated ropes are also available.
Note: reels will have sections of rope that have manufacturing imperfections - some reels more than others - it is not possible for us to guarantee the quality of any specific reel. Please be aware not all 200 meters of rope in any given spool will be useable.

Care & storage
Surface fuzz is normal. New jute develops a layer of fine fuzz. Some people singe this off; you can also brush it off with a coir brush, or just allow it to shed naturally with use. It's part of the breaking-in phase every jute rope goes through and not a defect.
Keep it dry. Jute is a natural fibre doesn't love being damp. If you can, we recommend airing your ropes out after use by hanging them. If your ropes do get wet you'll need to hang them under tension.
Re-oil when it dries out. Over time and use, jute loses some of the oils and will start to feel stiff and brittle. Re-treat the ropes with a jute-suitable oil (camellia/tsubaki oil is standard, jojoba oil is also very popular). How often you'll need to treat your ropes depends on how often you use it, whether it's used on skin or clothing and also the climate.
