Crafted with a meticulous blend of Merino wool and organic cotton, these heavyweight socks are a perfect union of comfort and durability. Made in Nara Prefecture, Japan, they reflect a century-old tradition of sock-making, combining skilled craftsmanship with advanced knitting techniques. The unique cotton/wool/poly mix ensures warmth while remaining breathable, ideal for any season. These socks not only elevate everyday wear but also showcase a commitment to quality and style.
From the brand: Everyone assumes that modern socks are just blasted out by hosiery robots somewhere humid with cheap labor. The truth is that knitting machines are complicated, and required highly skilled labor to run; and that there is a wide spectrum of these machines in use out there.
RoToTo works with factories around the Nara Prefecture and Goryocho village. Sock making began there over 100 years ago with a single machine brought home from the USA. Every one of their socks are careful balance between yarns, machines, and craftspeople. Even the most state-of-the art machines require operators who understands the nuances of the product being made.
