"The Value of Choosing by Function: UNSUNG HERO LAUNCH POP-UP"
【Design】
The first model of UNSUNG HERO, packed with features to support your coordination from the shadows.
Socks knitted using three 30-count combed cotton yarns.
The base of the socks uses a pile knit, which offers excellent cushioning.
Pile knitting is a method of knitting that forms loops (piles) during plain knitting, resulting in a towel-like, soft texture.
With a fluffy texture and moisture-absorbing properties, it maintains comfort even during prolonged wear.
To improve fabric durability, nylon is used for the core, but the visible surface and the part that touches the skin on the reverse side (pile part) are 100% cotton.
The result is a product that is particular about both its appearance and feel.
The greatest feature of this product is the knitting switch applied to the upper part.
It adopts a "modified pearl knit".
The fabric thickness is adjusted to firmly fit the flexion of the ankle.
Furthermore, this method allows the pile part on the reverse side to remain while knitting, unlike typical half-pile socks, which is also a key point.
The arch and ankle areas are switched to ribbed knitting to prevent slipping.
It also suppresses the stretching that often occurs with long-term use of full-pile socks.
In addition, the heel part adopts a wide-heel structure to prevent slipping (heel lift) when walking.
It securely holds the areas that need to be tightened without compromising softness, achieving a high level of fit.
The factory used is a domestic factory in one of Japan's leading sock producing regions.
The knitting machines used are vintage machines from a Japanese manufacturer.
Conversely, the linking of the toe is done using the latest machinery for a flat finish.
This eliminates bulkiness when worn and pursues comfort.
While appearing minimalist at first glance, when worn, it has a subtly three-dimensional striped appearance.
It looks like ordinary standard socks, but it's a little different.
The "subtle individuality" born from the pursuit of practicality supports your styling from your feet.
