These small and squeezable plushies are made from the same safe and soft materials as Kontex’s towels. Each friend sports a blissful expression and flattering striped shirt slow-woven from organic cotton. These toys are perfect for young children and will make a friend for life.
About Kontex
Since 1934, Kontex has been crafting high-quality towels in Imabari, Japan. The secret to Kontex' softness is in the manufacturing process. Each towel is made from fine, garment quality thread that’s loosely twisted for the highest level of softness. Such threads would break on modern weaving machines, thus Kontex towels are gently woven on traditional, low-speed machines to maintain the integrity of the thread and achieve a level of softness that modern machines cannot produce.
Materials: Outer - 100% Organic Cotton; Fill - 100% Polyester
Dimensions: 5.9" H x 2.36" W
Care: Machine wash with like colors in warm water (40℃) inside a mesh bag. Do not use bleach.
