Exploring the fascinating world of dakimakura pillows: Unveiling the tricks our minds play and the lessons we learn from our mistakes.
Ever wondered about the connection between the size of a dakimakura and its impact on your experience? Let us demystify it all for you in our little dakimakura size guide.
On the Dakimakura product page, you'll find a helpful table detailing dakimakura image sizes and corresponding prices. However, here's the twist - the listed numbers represent the dimensions of the pillowcase in a flat state, laid out on the table, not yet stretched over the pillow interior. As a result, the actual size changes when the pillowcase is fitted onto the pillow.
Don't judge a dakimakura by its cover.
It's a lesson learned through experience! Having worked extensively with dakimakuras, we encounter these pillows daily, and initially, we assumed that the sizing information was self-evident. But, as it turns out, it's not.
Customers, ordering a dakimakura for the first time, naturally expect the pillow to match the dimensions specified without accounting for stretch. This realization dawned on us after receiving feedback, highlighting that not everything was as obvious as we had thought.
To address this, we decided on the clearest solution - a photo series with a person holding each cushion, one at a time. We patiently waited until all the pillows were ordered on the same day and had a mini photoshoot. Now, we have a visual guide to assist you in choosing the right-sized cushion.
