In Japan, there has long been a saying, "Aitetsu Shijuhachi-iro" (48 shades of indigo).
This pair of socks uses indigo-dyed yarn in 9 different shades, combined with white slub yarn, which has irregular knots, to create a sock that highlights the indigo even more and has a rich expression.
Knitted slowly on old-fashioned knitting machines in Koryo Town, Nara Prefecture, which boasts the highest sock production in Japan, these low-gauge socks are plump and soft. The thick fabric is elastic and breathable, making them suitable for wear in any season.

■ 製品の特性について
・一点ものの表情: すべて手作業で染め上げているため、一つひとつ色や柄の出方、風合いが異なります。
・藍特有のアク: お洗濯の際、茶黄色の色素(アク成分)が出ることがございますが、藍染特有のものです。洗いを重ねるごとに抜け、本来のクリアな藍色が増していきます。
■ お洗濯について
・洗剤の選び方: 蛍光増白剤や漂白剤の入っていない「中性洗剤」をご使用ください
・初めのお手入れ: ご購入後、最初の2〜3回は中性洗剤を適量入れたぬるま湯(40度程度)での、優しい手洗いをおすすめいたします。
■ ご着用時の注意(色移り)
可能な限りの色止めを行っておりますが、強い摩擦や、雨や汗などで湿った状態でのご着用は、淡い色の衣類やバッグ等に色移りする可能性がございます。
■ 保管・メンテナンスについて
・紫外線への配慮: 藍のアクが日光などの紫外線に反応し、変色する可能性がございます。直射日光を避け、暗所で保管してください。

Responsible color production through integrated manufacturing
Indigo dyeing begins with agriculture.
We carefully handle every step, from soil preparation to dye production and dyeing, all by hand. This ensures that the natural differences brought about by the local environment can be expressed as our unique colors.

Nine shades of indigo reside in a single pair
Nine different indigo shades, each meticulously dyed, are lavishly knitted into a single pair. Slub yarn with irregular knots is also knitted in to create a three-dimensional effect. The organic expression, unique to hand-dyed yarn, cannot be achieved with a single color.

Collaboration in Nara, a Sock-Producing Region
Knitted at Yamaya Co., Ltd. in Koryo Town, Nara Prefecture, which boasts the largest production of socks in Japan. Mr. Nomura, the representative, says he wants to create organic socks that feel hand-knitted. The fabric, slowly knitted on old-fashioned knitting machines, is plump and soft, providing exceptional comfort.
