THESE ORGANIC COTTON 100% RIBBED SOCKS ARE MADE OF ONLY COTTON, WITH NO BACKING YARN LIKE NYLON. SINCE THEY ARE MADE OF PURE COTTON,  THEY ARE RECOMMENDED FOR PEOPLE WITH SENSITIVE SKIN AND FOR THE ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS. THE SOCKS ARE KNITTED WITH FINE 3 X 1 RIB-KNITS TO ENSURE A GOOD FIT, AND WILL NOT SLIP DOWN WITHOUT FEELING UNCOMFORTABLY TIGHT. THERE IS NO BACKING THREAD, SO THEY ARE GENTLE AND COMFORTABLE TO WEAR

THE COLORS ARE NATURAL WITH ONE POINT OF INDIGO DYEING, GREEN WITH IRON MORDANT FROM GREEN COTTON, AND NATURAL BLACK WITH GOBAISHI-DYE, WHICH HAS BEEN USED AS A DYE IN JAPAN SINCE ANCIENT TIMES.

NATURAL : INDIGO DYEING IS A NATURAL TECHNIQUE THAT HAS BEEN USED IN JAPAN FOR A LONG TIME FOR FIELD CLOTHES AND HAND TOWELS. IT IS A NATURALLY OCCURRING DYEING PROCESS THAT HAS DEODORIZING, INSECTICIDAL, AND ANTIBACTERIAL EFFECTS. WE USE INDIGO-DYED YARN DYED WITH THE TRADITIONAL TECHNIQUE CALLED NATURAL FERMENTATION CONSTRUCTION.

GREEN : IRON MORDANT DYEING IS A TECHNIQUE OFTEN USED IN HERB DYEING TO PREVENT THE COLOR FROM FADING DUE TO SUNLIGHT. GREEN COTTON NATURALLY HAS A TENDENCY TO FADE, BUT IRON MORDANTING STABILIZES  THE COLOR.

NATURAL BLACK : “GOBAISHI” DYEING IS A NATURAL DYEING PROCESS MADE FROM THE GALL, WHICH IS PRODUCED IN RHUS JAVANICA. IT CONTAINS A LOT OF TANNIN WHICH GIVES IT A DEEP GRAY COLOR THAT IS DIFFERENT FROM BLACK. IT HAS ANTIBACTERIAL PROPERTIES THAT MEET JIS STANDARDS SO IT CAN WRAP AROUND YOUR FEET COMFORTABLY.
