The design of these Jacquard Crew Socks "FairIsle" is inspired by traditional Scottish Fair Isle sweaters. The geometric pattern is carefully and finely knitted for a typical hand-knitted look. Each color combination is rigorously selected referring to original patterns. Although Fair Isle sweaters are originally made from wool, this pair is knitted from organic cotton, allowing them to be worn year-round. The specific organic cotton yarn used here is produced using a unique spinning method called "compact spinning," making it durable over time without fraying.

ROTOTO socks are manufactured in the largest sock-producing region of Japan, Nara Prefecture. The region has been known for its quality textiles since the 17th century. Industrial socks production was first introduced in 1910 when a man from the former village of Umami (now Koryocho) imported a weaving machine from the United States to his hometown after his study trip to the country.

ROTOTO places great value on collaboration in its product research: "We start by selecting the right yarns with craftsmen to develop the design of a new material. After that, we choose the knitting machines based on the type of material and the use of the product. These can be rare machines that have a specific use, old non-computerized knitting machines, or, conversely, modern high-tech tools."

ROTOTO socks can only be made by combining the right materials, the right machine, and the craftsman's know-how.

"Preserving the tradition inherited from previous generations, while painting the future with a fresh outlook. We will continue to strive to produce things that can only be created here."
