The article appeared on the front page of the Senken newspaper on 30 January!
The article “A New Corporate Image Envisioned by Women in Nara” highlighted the activities of women in Nara Prefecture, a production center for innerwear, legwear, and shoes, who have changed careers from other industries to take over the family business and changed the shape of the company.
Suzuki Socks also hopes to take the “rice bran fiber” business to the next step, together with Miyake-cho’s inbound business and other initiatives 🛫.
Suzuki Sock’s Sock Making -Manufacturing Suzuki Socks-
The essence of manufacturing has remained unchanged…
Suzuki Socks was established in Nara in 1958. We have continued to make history by manufacturing and selling mainly “rice bran fiber” products from Miyake-cho, Nara, the smallest town in Nara Prefecture, where socks are produced. We are delighted and grateful for the support of our many customers. Under the slogan “Good products for a long time”, we aim to create products that make our customers feel “excitement” and “a little happiness”.
Suzuki Socks does not have many state-of-the-art machines like other companies. Some of the older machines have been working hard for nearly half a century. There are also many skilled craftsmen, reliable staff working on developing new products, and staff who support us. Sometimes we modify old-fashioned machines, and with a lot of ingenuity, we are pursuing the creation of products and comfort that will impress our customers.
We will continue to work daily to deliver good products to our customers in the future.
Socks that have been carefully packaged and processed from product to product are inspected to ensure that they do not contain needles, in case they do. The processed socks are then passed through a needle-inspection machine to check for any abnormalities. The socks are delivered to the customer with safety and security.

Suzuki Sock’s Sock Making -Inspection and package processing-
After the inspection, the socks, which are still in a soggy condition, are taken to the finishing (setting) factory. In the setting process, the socks are placed on a metal molding plate and steam-applied in a setting machine to shape them.
After returning from the finishing factory, the socks are paired to form a pair of socks, which are then carefully processed into packages while being thoroughly inspected. The design of the obi and packaging is also filled with Suzuki Socks’ passion.
POP UP at Shibuya Hikarie from 11 Jan. Nara no Tobira”, a limited-only time antenna store that travels around all prefectures with Nara’s goods.
At the Suzuki socks corner, there have been repeating purchases of the socks that Onfille bought yesterday, saying “I bought these socks yesterday and they were so good that I didn’t even need slippers on the flooring, so I came back to buy more ♡” and the heel care socks have also been trendy 😌
The project is a grand project to visit all prefectures in Nara with Nara’s good products, no matter how many years it may take! This is a grand project! Thank you Suzuki Socks for participating in this project ✨
Nara no Tobira” at Shibuya Hikarie The “Nara no Tobira” exhibition at Shibuya Hikarie will be open until this Sunday only 🦌
After knitting, the socks are turned inside out. Due to the characteristics of the circular knitting machine, the socks are hollow from the opening to the toe, and the hollow part of the opening is sewn together using a special Rosso sewing machine. At first glance, this may seem like a simple sewing operation, but in fact, it is an important part of the sock as the way the socks are sewn together can make a big difference to the finished seams. It is the skill of a skilled craftsman to sew each piece together smoothly with the flow of the sewing machine so that it does not look ragged. At this point, the familiar sock shape is finally completed.
