Ashi no Koromto Linen
These socks are knitted with pure linen yarn, even in the reinforced sections, leaving the pleasant natural texture of the material unimpeded. The linen’s moisture-wicking properties provide a refreshing feel. Linen releases excess heat while retaining warmth, making these socks good for all seasons, not just summer. Can be worn over toe socks in winter.
Linen, often referred to as a "gift from the gods," has long been cherished for its versatility and resilience. It has been used as a source of oil and food and holds a sacred place in traditional ceremonies, such as the crafting of shimenawa (sacred ropes). Known for its ability to grow robustly without the need for pesticides or special care, linen is deeply intertwined with both spiritual rituals and daily life. Its moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and antibacterial properties make it exceptionally comfortable for your feet.
The "longer length" option ensures your skin remains modestly covered, even when wearing rolled-up pants or skirts, while the "shorter length" is perfect for pairing with sneakers for a light and breezy style. We hope you enjoy choosing the length that best complements your outfit of the day!
Its moderate insulating properties make it suitable not only for spring and summer but also for year-round use.
