Mauna Kea

Japanese Slub Socks – Grey

$35
Soft marled socks crafted in Japan on vintage knitting machines, which results in a looser, more comfortable knit than modern machines. Crafted from a breathable cotton and hemp blend and lightly ribbed, each sock is tubular knitted making them extremely comfortable to wear. This method also means the socks will not twist on the ankle, or go out of shape when washing, and will shape to the wearer's foot over time.
  • Made in Japan
  • Mid-rise socks
  • 65% cotton / 20% acrylic / 15% hemp
Care:
Machine washable. Maximum 40°C wash
We recommend the conscious choice of 30°C

Maker Profile

Mauna Kea

Based in Nara Japan, Mauna Kea specialise in the production of socks, with an emphasis on comfort, quality and natural materials. In addition to their renowned hemp and cotton blend to ensure quick-drying and temperature regulation, Mauna Kea also employs lesser used construction techniques and machines, with a preference for low-gauge knits in order to afford increased flexibility and comfort.
