CHOOSING THE RIGHT DAKIMAKURA SIZE
Welcome to the world of Dakimakura at ADOREHOMESTUDIO!
We know choosing your favorite character body pillow cover is exciting. But faced with so many sizes, do you feel a hint of hesitation: "Which size is right for me?" Don’t worry! This guide is tailor-made for you. We’ll walk you through the uses, features, and ideal scenarios for each dakimakura size, helping you easily find that "perfect match" for the most comfortable hugging experience – whether for yourself or someone you cherish!
Core Principles: Key Factors for Size Selection
Before diving into specific sizes, here are core questions to consider:
-
What’s the primary purpose?
-
Hugging/Sleeping Companion: Needs sufficient length (usually 150cm+) and width (50cm+) for comfortable cuddling or leaning.
-
Backrest/Sofa Accent: Smaller sizes (e.g., 40x120cm, 45x45cm) or standard sizes (50x150cm) are often more versatile.
-
Collection/Display: Focuses on pattern completeness and visual impact. Larger sizes (e.g., 60x180cm) or special proportions may be better.
-
Car/Travel: Compact mini sizes (e.g., 40x60cm, 40x70cm) are ideal.
-
For Children: Smaller, lighter sizes (e.g., 34x100cm, 40x120cm) are more suitable.
-
-
How much space is available?
-
Consider your bed size, sofa space, or display area. Large pillows fit well on single beds but can overwhelm limited spaces. Smaller sizes offer more flexibility.
-
-
What’s your comfort preference?
-
Love feeling completely wrapped? Choose longer and wider.
-
Prefer lightweight, easy-to-move, and easy-to-store? Choose smaller.
-
-
Budget and Storage:
-
Generally, larger sizes cost more (due to material and printing costs). Storage also requires more space.
-
-
Inner Pillow Matching (CRUCIAL!):
-
Emphasize! Emphasize! Emphasize! A Dakimakura is a cover! You need to buy a separately sold inner pillow of the exact same size to fill it!
-
Choosing the wrong inner size leads to:
-
Too Loose: Pattern distorts; feels limp and unsupportive when hugged.
-
Too Tight: Hard to insert; may strain seams, zippers, or overstretch the pattern.
-
-
ALWAYS buy an inner pillow that matches the exact size of your chosen dakimakura cover!
-
Your Size Breakdown: Find Your "Golden Ratio"
Now, let’s explore each size in your product line, detailing features and recommended scenarios:
-
50x150cm:
-
Features: A very classic and popular "life-sized" proportion. Moderate length suits most Asian adults for hugging. Width provides good wrap-around feel.

-
50x160cm & 60x170cm & 60x180cm:
-
Features: These are extended/larger sizes. 50x160cm is longer than the standard 150cm; 60x170cm and 60x180cm significantly increase both length and width for a more "full-body" cocooning sensation and visual impact.
-
Recommended For:

Taller/bigger users (especially 170cm+), as 160/170/180cm lengths better fit the body.

Those who love being fully enveloped, seeking ultimate comfort and security.
-
Collectors wanting to fully showcase intricate large-scale artwork details.
-
People with larger beds or ample space.
-
-
Note: Larger sizes demand higher-quality inner pillows (need very plump filling), can be trickier to store/wash, and usually cost more.
