The Room Socks from ROTOTO are true slippers/socks. They have been developed using a machine specially designed to produce various types of socks for skiers, mountain rescue teams, and fishermen. Inspired by the Japanese tradition of removing shoes when entering a home, they are thick, warm, and comfortable, meant to be worn without shoes. Enhanced with non-slip inscriptions on the bottom of the foot, they will splendidly accompany your relaxing moments at home. The pattern draws inspiration from traditional Native American textiles, adding a complementary, original, and colorful touch.

It is strongly advised to avoid the tumble dryer which could cause shrinkage.

ROTOTO socks are manufactured in the largest sock-producing region of Japan, Nara Prefecture. The area has been known for its quality textiles since the 17th century. Industrial production of socks 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 a study trip to the country.

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

The 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 look. We will continue to try to produce things that can only be created here."
