LOT 019 SOCKS IN DARK BROWN

$40.00
  • Details

    These socks are the revival of vintage socks woven with the Zokki knitting technique. Today's socks use elastic chemical yarn for the fitting yarn to ensure tight fitting, but Zokki knitting is done without using fitting yarn. The longer ribbed cuff and variations in the knitting pattern successfully replicate the unique silhouette of vintage socks. The rare socks made of 100% cotton without fitting yarn are woven on an old sock-knitting machine at a traditional factory in Nara.

    T.T is a unisex brand based in New York and Kyoto. Taiga Takahashi, the founder and designer, underwent an education that merged Japanese culture with Western thought. The brand concept is "resurrecting relics of the past to unearth artifacts of the future". Believing that the true value of craftsmanship already exists in history, the fabrics, sewing and details of time-survived garments are researched from an archaeological perspective, reinterpreted in a new way and bring it back to life in the modern age. T.T. is a creative project that creates timeless garments that are inspired by the founder's collection of vintage apparel and created by Japanese artisans.
