Banana Cloth® – A One-of-a-Kind Material
Our signature product is made with Banana Cloth®, a unique fiber extracted from banana stems. By blending high-quality cotton with banana fiber, we’ve created socks with an unmatched feel and comfort.
Compared to ordinary cotton, banana fiber offers:
• Superior moisture absorption and breathability to keep feet dry
• Remarkable durability for long-lasting wear
• Natural odor-resistant properties for all-day freshness
It’s an eco-friendly material that doesn’t compromise on quality.

We invite you to experience our special socks for yourself.
We’re confident you’ll feel the difference.
