We're thrilled to introduce KIYOMI RED, a stunning new addition to the AMATSUNAWA rope collection! This vibrant rope complements our popular KIYOMI rope and brings fresh, bold colour to your Shibari practice.
KIYOMI RED is a medium-lay, perfectly tensioned 3-strand, single-ply rope - strong, durable, flexible, and skin-friendly. It's ideal for both beginners and professionals, requires minimal maintenance, softens beautifully with use, and offers a long life span. It's JBO-free, has a subtle natural scent, and features a rich, vivid red colour.
Sourcing the right VOT-batched red jute yarn of the highest quality took nearly two years. Just like with our golden KIYOMI rope, we went through multiple stages of testing and refinement to ensure this rope meets the hightest standards for bondage applications. Pre-dyed yarns are less flexible than golden jute, so KIYOMI RED features a slightly looser twist for optimal performance and feel.
It's also easy to condition: after just 30mins in the tumble dryer, only minimal hair remains on the surface. Full conditioning instructions here. Conditioning KIYOMI RED even deepens the already vibrant red colour.
KIYOMI RED is available in three true diameters: 6mm, 5.5mm and 5mm.
At AMATSUNAWA, our mission is to offer a diverse range of exceptional ropes tailored to the needs of the Shibari niche market. With KIYOMI RED, we're proud to take another important step in expanding our portfolio. KIYOMI RED is not just a limited edition - it's here to stay as a staple in our product range.
