Do Jute Rugs Get Softer

Simply put: Yes, jute rugs are soft. The jute plant is naturally soft, shiny, and long. When harvested, those soft fibers are then spun, bundled, and soaked in water to further soften the tissues of the plant fiber. As a result, jute rugs are one of the softest natural area rugs available today.
