Recycled Materials
At Tabio, we have been creating luxury socks designed for your utmost comfort whilst keeping in mind our impact on the environment.
Using innovative Japanese materials and techniques, we combine design with sustainability. Our range includes socks made from recycled PET bottles, wool, yarns, and ethically sourced washi from Nara, Japan.
Caring for your socks
Care
During production, Toe and Tabi Socks may have threads between the toes. These are not defects—they reinforce the sock and enhance durability. Cutting them may cause holes, so it’s best to leave them as they are.
washing
Turn socks inside-out and follow the label instructions. Wash gently in warm or cool water, preferably in a washing net with mild soap. Hand washing or air-drying is gentler and helps prevent snags, keeping socks lasting longer.
Drying
You can tumble-dry on low, but the best method is air-drying in the shade. Always follow the care instructions for each material.
*Wool - Avoid high temperatures and tumble-drying, as wool may shrink. Dry in the shade for best results.
storage
Proper folding prevents overstretching and misshaping, keeping socks comfortable and long-lasting. It also helps maximize drawer space.
How to Fold
- Lay socks flat, one on top of the other
- Fold in half, bringing cuffs over the toes
- Adjust folds depending on sock length
Product Care Tip
For extra care, we recommend using a laundry net for delicate or lacy socks. This helps protect them from zippers, hooks, or the washing machine door seal, keeping your socks in top condition.
