These chunky, organic cotton, ribbed socks are knitted with an old-style, low-gauge knitting machine that only a few craftsmen can operate. The eye-catching coloration is inspired by outdoor wear made in the 1980s and 1990s. The fabric is thick and tough but also has excellent breathability because of the chunky stitches. Each pair goes well not just with sneakers but also with sandals.

About:

ROTOTO is made by our friends in Goryocho Village and the Nara Prefecture of Japan. Sock making began there over 100 years ago on a single machine brought over from the U.S.A. Continuing to make socks based on the principles of "lifetime consumables" and comfort, they blend sustainable yarns including organic cotton, silk, and linen to create the best socks you'll ever set foot in.

ROTOTO's socks can be made only with a combination of the right material, the right machine and craftsmanship. Their aim is to preserve the tradition inherited from their ancestors, while painting the future of the major producer of socks with a fresh point of view.
