Plump, warm alpaca socks knitted by skilled circular knitting artisans in Nara. Also suitable for cold therapy and layering.
Short socks knitted with alpaca yarn.
The alpaca on the inside is soft against the skin, offering natural warmth.
Perfect as room socks, replacing slippers.
Feature 1: Made in Nara, a famous sock production region
Nara is famous for sock making. With abundant experience and technical skill, Japanese socks are recognized worldwide. They are highly trusted for their elasticity, durability, and material quality.
Feature 2: High alpaca content, almost entirely alpaca on the skin side
While most alpaca blends tend to include acrylic, VEGA series alpaca socks are 67% alpaca, 24% wool, with only a minimal amount of nylon to support elasticity.
Unlike socks with only a little alpaca, using abundant natural materials significantly enhances their functionality.
The inner side feels smoother and silkier than wool, making them very comfortable to wear.
Feature 3: Benefits of alpaca raised in harsh environments.
Alpacas, which inhabit the Andes mountains where temperatures can drop to -20 degrees Celsius, have evolved, like sheep, to possess excellent insulation and heat retention to protect themselves.
Their fibers are finer and softer than wool, and their smooth texture makes them resistant to pilling. They are also strong against friction, making them a suitable material for socks.
Feature 4: Breathable like wool, requires fewer washes
The excellent moisture-regulating properties of alpaca and wool keep your feet comfortable and dry, even in winter when they can sweat. Natural antibacterial effects also suppress odors, reducing the need for frequent washing.
Feature 5: Non-slip treatment
With non-slip grips on the bottom, they can be used as room socks, or even as a substitute for slippers.
