From the brand: 1980〜90年代前半にかけてスキー用ソックスを編み立てていた特殊な編み機で作ったソックスです。スキーブーツの進化にともなってソックスが薄手になったことで、この編み機でのスキーソックスの生産量も減少。現在この編み機では、漁師さんや林業関係など、寒冷地で働く方が履くワークソックスを生産しています。実際にそれらのワークソックスで使用している、太番手のウールとアクリルの混紡糸をベースに使用し、足底をパイル編みに仕上げたこのソックスは、ブーツソックスとして普段履きはもちろん、フィッシングやキャンプなどアウトドアシーンでも使用できる一足です。
※乾燥機の使用は縮みの原因となりますのでお避けください。
These chunky slipper socks are knitted with a machine used for ski sock manufacturing between the 1980s to the early 1990s. As ski socks have become thinner because of the improvements in ski boot technology, the quantity of ski socks made with this machine has been reduced. Currently this specially-designed machine is used to knit socks for fishermen, woodsmen and other workers in the cold areas. This item is made of the same material of those worker’s socks, thick wool/acrylic blend yarn, and features a brushed sole, so it is ideal not just for everyday use, but also for outdoor activities such as fishing and camping.
* Avoid tumble drying, as it may cause shrinkage.
