They are an essential with traditional clothing like kimonos and other wafuku. They were also worn by samurai during the Feudal Era.

SHIPPING & DELIVERY
Material is more of a “dress sock” style than “american cotton sock”, which might snag and tear easier than something in a thicker material. One-size-fits-all fits me, so no complaints on that.
Nice item. I needed these for my ninja tabi boots! Very nicely done!
