🔹 What Makes SHOSHINSHA Unique?

1.Jute Rope — Tradition Refined

  • Pedigree Fiber: Only “Golden Jute” from Bangladesh’s Ganges Delta, prized for its long staple length and natural sheen.
  • Solid Colors: Dyed before spinning for rich, fade-resistant tone throughout the strand. 
  • Gradient Series: Hand-dyed in Kyoto using traditional methods — each rope a one-of-a-kind visual composition. 

 

2.Hemp Rope – Strength with Sensitivity

  • Heirloom Craft Process: Drawn from heritage-grade hemp grown for fiber quality, then softened through a slow 72-hour preparation using traditional rope-making methods.
  • Balanced for Bondage: Strong, flexible, and ready for suspension — with a clean finish that’s gentle to the touch. 

 

3.Bamboo Rope – Light, Lush, and Visually Striking

  • Featherlight Feel: Our lightest rope — ideal for layered ties, detailed accents, and extended sessions where weight matters.
  • Vivid Color Range: Takes dye more vibrantly than any other rope we offer, with a soft, silky finish that enhances skin contact and photographic presence.
  • Gentle Utility: Perfect for body-focused ties, decorative flourishes, or high-contact zones where texture and comfort are key. 

 

4.Paracord – Beyond Limits

  • Synthetic Vibe: Lightweight and smooth, with low stretch. Commonly used for uplines and utility ties.
  • Water-Friendly: Resistant to moisture and suited for outdoor or wet-scene environments.
