Since 1950, NISHIGUCHI KUTSUSHITA has been producing warm, pleasant, and comforting socks in Japan. Katsuji Nishiguchi founded the company Knitwin Co. in the prefecture of Nara with just one manual knitting machine. Since then, the company has continued to grow through generations and is currently managed by Isato Nishiguchi, the third generation.

Their collection is divided into 4 ranges, named after the cities that inspired them: Boston, Prague, Oslo, and Teni.

The Silk Cotton Socks are part of the Boston range. The city of Boston in the USA is home to many baseball fans but mostly a significant working class. Just like any good workwear or footwear, these socks are designed to provide unmatched comfort and enhanced durability throughout their use.

These socks are made from a base of so-called "virgin" cotton. This refers to fibers collected from productions, then spun on a specialized machine to produce an extra-fine yarn. This yarn is then combined with a silk thread to enhance its soft and smooth texture. One of the added values of silk also lies in its antibacterial and sweat-resistant properties. The result is a fluffy and comfortable sock, enhanced with a touch of bright color to brighten up its basic design.
