Our Products
Tabio Organic Cotton
Our organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals, synthetic fertilisers, or pesticides protecting both the environment and the farmers who cultivate it. Organic cotton farming often uses more water-efficient methods like crop rotation and cover cropping, helping conserve water and reduce environmental impact, especially in areas with water scarcity. Sourced from certified farms, this cotton offers a softer, more breathable feel while supporting healthier soil and biodiversity. By choosing organic, we’re choosing a cleaner future one sock at a time.


Working with the local community
The fields we use to cultivate cotton are reclaimed from fallow land in Nara Prefecture, Japan. This initiative supports local employment and helps revitalise the town of Koryo through collaboration with skilled local silver artisans.

Washi - Recycled Japanese Paper
Our washi yarn is made from recycled Japanese paper, reimagined through advanced spinning techniques to create a lightweight, breathable, and naturally deodorising fibre. Inspired by centuries-old papermaking traditions, this material blends heritage with sustainability reducing waste while offering exceptional comfort. Washi socks are a testament to how innovation and craftsmanship can come together for a cleaner, cooler step forward.
Recycled Polyester
We give plastic a second life by transforming recycled PET bottles and polyester fibres into high-performance socks. Through advanced recycling and spinning techniques, we create durable, breathable yarns that reduce reliance on virgin plastics and help divert waste from landfills and oceans. These socks combine environmental responsibility with everyday functionality proof that sustainability can be seamlessly woven into every step.


Engineered Lyocell
Our sports, running, and football socks feature engineered recycled Lyocell an advanced, plant-based fibre made from sustainably sourced wood pulp. Through a closed-loop process, it’s regenerated with minimal environmental impact and offers exceptional moisture management, breathability, and softness. Built for performance and endurance, these socks deliver technical precision while reducing waste so you can train harder with a lighter footprint.
