Gorgeous vibrant jute rope
I purchased the purple/gold colorway of the jute rope, and the rope is very high quality and absolutely stunning in person. I get compliments all the time on my rope. The quality of the rope is very nice. It does have a very loose lay, so need to take great care to prevent high stranding. I tied with my jute rope almost daily for about 4 months and it is holding up quite well. The rope is a bit fuzzy and scratchy upon arrival but it softens beautifully without any extra effort and all my bottoms love how it feels after my rope has gotten worn in. It is possible to speed this up with conditioning the rope immediately. It feels absolutely amazing to tie with and it is definitely my most used and favorite rope now. The jute is so lightweight and fluid with amazing hold for friction and compresses down so well. My ties would so clean and sharp tying with this rope. I do use jute for floor and suspension harnesses, but I use POSH as my uplines, so I can't speak on how well it holds up over time for suspensions. The knots at the end is extremely compact and probably my favorite type of knotted ends, but I prefer whipped ends so ended up whipping my ropes as well. I would love it if Shoshinsha offered whipped options. The length of the rope is a bit unusual at 10 meters (32 ft) compared to most other vendors who sell 8 meters (26 ft) or 30ft rope. I really grew to love the extra length for adding fun random freestyle elements to my ties. I also feel like it really trained my rope handling skills having to manage the extra length, so I feel so fluid while tying. Personally, I may explore other jute options to try different lengths and different tightness of the rope lays. Loose lays are quite popular now, but I feel like I may like tighter lays since I also use POSH which has extremely tight lay. I do think the current lay that Shoshinsha uses would be appreciated by most riggers and bunnies for the softness and flexibility of the rope. This rope is absolutely gorgeous in person, so I will always keep a set of this vibrant rope, and I do plan to purchase a replacement kit when my jute eventually gets too worn out. The colorway is so special and memorable, and it seriously gives me so much joy tying with it. The purple is much more stunning and vivid than any other brand's purple colorway that I've seen. Also, I want to specifically mention how amazing the owner Landi is. He answered all my questions extremely thoroughly and responds quickly over email. Also, some of my rope was damaged upon arrival and he replaced them promptly. I've also met him at both Tethered and Ropecraft, and he is a very helpful and knowledgeable vendor.
