Welcome back to “Into the Roots,”
Episode 2 — Part 3. ✨

Last time, we discovered the story and philosophy behind Chiyoji’s remarkable socks.

This time, we step inside the factory to see how they’re actually made.

🧦🧦🧦🧦🧦

How are the remarkable socks from our last episode made?
We stepped inside the factory to find out. ✨

Socks are among the most complex knitted products. 🧶

Every pair is carefully knitted—from the cuff and heel to the instep and the toe—using remarkably sophisticated machines.

At Chiyoji, vintage and modern machines work side by side, each carefully programmed for a different part of the process.

Some of the vintage machines are still programmed using cassette tapes. 📼✨

It’s a rare skill, preserved by Chiyoji’s factory manager, whose deep knowledge keeps these remarkable machines running. 👏

In the world of sock making, newer isn’t always better.

True craftsmanship comes from understanding the strengths of both tradition and innovation.

Through decades of skill and dedication, exceptional socks continue to be made. 🥰🧦

Welcome back to “Into the Roots,”
Episode 2 — Part 2. ✨

In our last episode, we traveled to Kakogawa, one of Japan’s leading sock-producing regions.

Now, we step inside Chiyoji to discover the story behind the craftsmanship. ☺️

🧦🧦🧦

Founded in 1951,
Chiyoji has spent decades crafting socks for brands around the world.

Their philosophy is simple:
to create socks you’ll want to wear every day. ✨

Customers describe them in their own words:

“They’re so comfortable, I can’t wear anything else.”

“Soft and wonderfully cushioned.”

“They help my feet feel less tired.”

“Beautifully made to last for years.”

From their thermal socks to their signature marble socks,
Chiyoji has earned the trust of customers across Japan. 🇯🇵💝

Orders continue to arrive from every corner of the country.

The quality speaks for itself—from the very first step.

Next time, we’ll take you behind the scenes to discover how these remarkable socks are made. ☺️💓

Welcome back to “Into the Roots,”
a series from Rooted Japan. 🇯🇵✨🥰

For our second episode,
we travel to the Kakogawa area of Hyogo Prefecture to discover the craftsmanship behind its renowned sock-making tradition. 🧦🇯🇵

— Kakogawa: Crafting the Finest Socks —

This time, we journey to the Harima region of Hyogo Prefecture.

Kakogawa City, Hyogo.
About an hour by train from Osaka, 🚃
nestled between Kobe, famous for Kobe beef, 🥩
and Himeji, home to Japan’s iconic castle. 🏯

Crossing the calm waters of the Seto Inland Sea
and the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge,
we arrive at our destination.

Harima has a long tradition of cotton cultivation and textile craftsmanship.
Harima is also home to Banshu-ori, one of Japan’s renowned textile traditions. 🧵🧶

In 1886, sock production began in Kakogawa. 🧦
Passed down through generations, local craftsmanship helped Kakogawa grow into one of Japan’s three major sock-producing regions. ✨

At the foot of beautiful Mt. Takamikura, ⛰️
we visited Chiyoji,
a company that has continued its craft for more than seventy years.🧦✨
