Drawing inspiration from traditional Fair Isle sweaters crafted in Scotland's Fair Isle, these jacquard socks showcase a meticulously knitted geometric pattern for a cozy, hand-knitted-like aesthetic. The color combination is thoughtfully chosen, referencing traditional designs but with a light touch to add vibrancy to your step. While Fair Isle sweaters typically use wool, this pair is knitted with organic cotton, ensuring year-round comfort. The organic cotton yarn, produced through a unique fuzz-resistant spinning method known as 'compact yarn,' enhances durability and quality.
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.
