Despite their solid and simple appearance, these socks boast soles knitted with Washi yarn pile. The cotton cuff offers a soft touch against the skin, while the sole delivers a distinct crisp sensation. This pair's design is brimming with creative concepts, effectively leveraging the unique characteristics of each material. Washi yarn is renowned for its superb moisture-wicking and quick-drying attributes, along with its deodorizing effect.

The sock production in the northwestern part of Nara Prefecture is thus originated from the area’s centuries-long tradition of the weaving industry. And that is why Rototo places more value on manufacturing that requires a lot of discussion with factory craftsmen who preserve the tradition and history. Rototo’s socks can be made only with a combination of the right material, the right machine and craftsmanship. They aim to preserve the tradition inherited from their ancestors.
