Tabi Socks: A Blend of Tradition and Modernity Tabi socks are a traditional Japanese footwear accessory with a distinctive split-toe design. Originating from the Heian period (794–1185 AD), these socks were initially crafted for use with traditional sandals like zori and geta, ensuring a secure fit and comfort. Historically, tabi socks were worn by various social classes, including samurai, and played a practical role in mounting horses and walking. They were made from materials like cotton or wool, depending on the season and need. Tabi socks play a crucial role in Japanese cultural traditions, such as tea ceremonies and martial arts. They complement traditional attire, such as kimonos, and symbolize a deep connection to Japanese heritage. In contemporary fashion, tabi socks have evolved beyond traditional settings, being available in a variety of materials, colors, and styles as high-fashion footwear. As time passes, we will be adding more designs and different sizes. We hope you can enjoy your Tabi socks for daily life or a variety of occasions!
