A very Japanese style rope but with a higher than average yarn count for extra smoothness. Each of the three strands has 18 single yarns, which is 50% more than average. Thus, the rope is soft, flexible and compresses to form nice, compact knots and frictions.
As the yarn is dyed before making the rope, the colour is consistent all the way through and there are no nasty smells. It also means you don't need to wet treat this rope. It also has very little hair so burning off is optional. It can be used as is but oiling or waxing will help preserve it and create a wonderful silkiness with use.
The diameter is 6.2mm but I would expect this to break in to an exact 6mm. At around 17.5g per metre, it is a light and fast rope.
The coloring process dries out the fiber of the rope. We recommend using almond oil, tsubaki oil or wax to nourish and soften the rope.
NEW! We have developed for this rope a special dry treatment that does not alter the color.
The colorful rope keeps its bright color and becomes incredibly soft and pleasant to the touch.

Beautiful color
Gorgeous color & good quality rope but takes a lot of work and care to break - it was super stiff and harsh on the skin upon arrival. The ESINEM Rope team answers: Thank you for your review. We have been offering dry treatment since July 2023 to avoid breaking the rope.
