First Original Socks Born in the Designer's Hometown of Gifu
'sawa takai' is a popular brand that expresses a strong-willed female image through its worldview, with the theme of 'clothes to wear for oneself, not for anyone else.' We will focus on the newly released socks.

'sawa takai' was founded in 2012 by designer Sawai Takai as a brand based in New York. It is known for its mannish style, which expresses inspiration gained in New York with Japanese quality and utilizes experience in men's maison.
The brand has now relocated its base to Japan, and one of the items announced as a new initiative, the brand's first original socks, is gaining popularity.
These were produced at a local sock factory in Gifu, the designer's hometown, and are made from recycled cotton spun solely from fallen cotton that would otherwise be discarded. Woven loosely with softly twisted yarn, they offer a simple yet meticulously crafted pair with a soft texture and natural feel.
Anticipation is high for new items born from the collaboration between a local sock factory with 80 years of history and Sawai Takai's sensibility, as well as for the future of 'sawa takai'.
