We try our best to make our fabric photographs and descriptions communicate the true essence of a fabric, but sometimes you just have to see the fabric in person to really know what it’s like. With that in mind, we’ve made it easy to request samples of any fabric.
For those who are unable to visit one of our 11 retail stores in California we want you to still have the choice to consider options in your home. Contact us and we can send you a sample fabric to help you compare colors and feel. We want to help you give new meaning to the phrase "shopping online from home!"
We carry the largest collection of fabrics online and do our best to describe an item's color in each description we write. In spite of our best efforts to accurately describe each fabric, we can never guarantee exact colors or color matching because of this simple fact: Variations in monitor or mobile color settings are just too wide from device to device. This is why we strongly encourage you to order a swatch before purchasing your fabric or trim. We ship your swatches promptly so that you can touch, feel and decide on your beautiful fabric selection. The Futon Shop has hundreds of comparable fabric options of all different feels, colors, and styles. Although you can read to compare qualities and benefits of each we want you to experience our quality fabrics by sending swatches to you by mail.

The word FUTON is a Japanese word originally referring to any round mat our cushion filled with leaves. The traditional Japanese Futon is a group of three products making up a bed. The three products consist of a futon, which is a thin cotton pad, a shikibuton which is a three folding pad that sits under the thin cotton pad, and a Kakibuton which is a comforter that goes on top of the thin cotton pad.

Futon Covers protect your natural mattress underneath as it protects the surface when being used as a organic sofa, Platform bed frame, or couch. Machine Washable, Stain Resistant & Dryer Safe! Learn more about What Are The Best Futon Covers?
The environment will in most situations determine the type of futon slipcover you need. By environment, I am referring to not only the space itself, but the what other items are the sharing the space and who will be using it. As an example, do you have children or pets? Will this be used as a main piece of furniture in a living room, or as an occasional in the guest room. If you are in a moist environment or are planning to have your mattress outside, an acrylic outdoor futon slipcover will be ideal rather than a cotton futon slipcover as cotton absorbs moisture and the acrylic is both moisture and mold resistant. For children and pets, a microfiber futon cover may be a better option as microfiber is stain resistant, water repellent and machine washable. Learn more about What's The Best Mattress Cover?

When looking to purchase a new futon slipcover or pillow case it is important to consider its construction. There are two important factors of slipcover construction, the first being how the cover is designed, whether it uses zippers or buttons, or if there is welting or not. The other factor is what the slipcover is constructed out of, i.e. what material is used to make the slipcover. Learn more about How Mattress Covers And Pillows Made?
