Among the various types of Aizu cotton, only material from the Aoki district of Aizubange called Aoki cotton known for its vertically striped pattern, once enjoyed great popularity for its quality. Aizu cotton is thick and durable and repeated washing makes it feel soft.
Demand for Aoki cotton took a downturn, though, amid changing lifestyles after World War II and all production plants in the town of Aizubange were closed some 30 years ago.
