An introduction to Tabi Socks
Tabi is referred to as a typical Japanese worker's shoe.
The Tabi, can be traced as far back as the 15th century. Tabi are originally footwear that was designed with a split-toe design to promote balance through the separation of the big toe.
A holistic reflexology strategy that promotes a clear mind. It’s also considered to be connected to your sense of self, making it a perfect fit for all types of Tabi, including the sandals and general footwear.
At first, the socks were exclusive to the upper-class due to cotton scarcity, however nowadays, they have became more universally worn, and now you can too!
Benefits of wearing Tabi Socks:
1) Promotes mobility and improves balance.
2) All day comfort.
3) Style elevation from regular socks.
4) Airism effect, keeps toes away from unwanted sweat.
Tabi socks are not all the same, the upper-class were known to have worn purple and gold, however commoners exclusively wore blue Tabi.
