Tatōshi is specialized storage paper for kimonos.
What is Tatōshi?
Tatōshi is a special wrapping paper used for storing kimonos.

The name varies by region. Besides tatōshi and tatōgami, it's also called bunkoshi or bunkogami, and many other names. (In some areas, the same term tatōshi might refer to kaishi paper or isho-jiki.)

The main roles of tatōshi are: ① Mold prevention ② Dust and dirt prevention ③ Wrinkle prevention.

① Mold Prevention
As the name suggests, tatōshi is made of paper, so it can be expected to absorb moisture. If moisture builds up in chests of drawers or closets, it can cause mold. Wrapping your kimono in tatōshi, which absorbs moisture, provides peace of mind.

② Dust and Dirt Prevention
Even when stored in chests of drawers or closets, dust tends to accumulate over time. Wrapping your kimono in tatōshi prevents dust and dirt from settling directly on the fabric.

③ Wrinkle Prevention
If you stack kimonos directly or fold them and place them in paper bags, they can easily develop unwanted wrinkles. Wrapping each kimono individually in tatōshi makes it less likely to wrinkle, even when stacked with other kimonos.
