NODAL / Tie-Dye Long Socks

NODAL
NODAL is a Japanese sock brand specializing in traditional Tabi (split-toe) socks, crafted by Tamai Shoten, a historic manufacturer founded in 1889. The name “NODAL” refers to a point where things intersect, reflecting the brand’s mission to bring the expertise and craftsmanship cultivated through generations of tabi making into the worlds of fashion and sports.

Premium Combed Cotton Yarn for a Soft Feel
The socks are made with combed cotton yarn, chosen for its smooth feel against the skin. Though casual in appearance, they feel gentle against bare skin, making them comfortable for everyday wear.

Using oatmeal-melange yarn rather than a plain white base enhances the vivid character of the tie-dye while keeping the overall tone tastefully subdued. The patterns remain eye-catching without feeling overly bold, creating a refined impression.





More Than Appearance—Functional Support for the Feet
The sole features a terry-knit construction that adds soft, cushioned comfort. It feels gentle underfoot even during extended wear and remains comfortable when paired with sneakers or boots.



An elastic support band is knitted into the arch, creating a secure fit that follows the natural shape of the foot. The socks stay comfortably in place and provide subtle support during everyday walking.

Each pair is individually hand-dyed by artisans, meaning no two patterns are exactly alike. This unique character is one of the defining appeals of tie-dye, allowing you to enjoy a pair that is truly your own.



A Versatile Long Length That Adds Character
Measuring approximately 25 cm in length, the socks can be shown subtly beneath the hem of trousers or worn with shorts as the focal point of an outfit, expanding the possibilities for styling.

The one-size design accommodates feet from 23 to 27 cm and can be worn by both men and women. Combining the distinctive fit of a tabi-style toe with the playful character of tie-dye, this pair brings a fresh note to everyday footwear.
