Tenugui with Cozy Tanuki Raccoon Pattern (715)

Tanuki.
Raccoon in Japanese is "Tanuki". A famous phrase meaning "to excel all other people" uses the same word. This tenugui is therefore not just a cute picture of a group of raccoons, but also an encouraging design for anyone needing some encouragement!

"Tenugui" is often translated as "Japanese towel", but this translation fails to cover their versatility and cultural significance. Tenugui are not only used as hand towels and handkerchiefs, but also function as fashion items, gift wrapping, souvenirs, sweat bands and padding (e.g. in the martial arts kendo), and of course as decorative items due to their often beautiful, funny or nostalgic patterns.

Please be aware that tenugui cloth by default never are hemmed, which allows them to dry very quickly.
