Take-Ashi Features

Take-Ashi is made from bamboo fiber, a material created from natural bamboo. Bamboo fabric is soft, comfortable, moisture-absorbent, quick-drying, and breathable. Unlike cotton, wood, and other viscose fibers, it boasts excellent antibacterial properties and health care features.

Hypoallergenic and Gentle to the Skin

The bamboo sole material feels cool to the touch, offering a refreshing sensation when worn. Its smooth, low-friction surface prevents static electricity, resembling the feel of silk. Lightweight, incredibly soft, and gentle on the skin, bamboo fiber is especially suitable for those with sensitive skin.

The Mysterious Appeal of Bamboo Fiber

  1. Antibacterial and Deodorizing Properties of Bamboo Fiber

Bamboo fiber is known for its exceptional natural deodorizing capabilities. It can adsorb and eliminate ammonia gas, the cause of body odor, and inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, ensuring cleanliness even after repeated use and washing. Beyond its deodorizing effect, it also eliminates odors.

  1. Breathability and Moisture Absorption

High air permeability prevents moisture buildup and comfortably envelops bare feet. The surface grooves of bamboo fibers enhance the area exposed to air, facilitating quick moisture release. While ordinary fibers like cotton absorb water equivalent to their own volume, bamboo fibers absorb three times as much, swiftly absorbing perspiration for lasting comfort.

  1. Body Temperature Regulation

Bamboo fiber adapts cool in summer and warm in winter. It absorbs moisture and disperses heat based on external temperatures, suitable for year-round use. Its structure with numerous small fiber gaps promotes excellent air permeability without hindering skin breathing, offering natural comfort in various climates.

  1. Prevention of Static Electricity

Neutral electric charge prevents fabric clinginess. Reduced static electricity deters dust mites and other particles, enhancing fabric hygiene.

History of the Birth of "Bamboo Feet"

Upon discovering the appeal of bamboo fiber, I realized the mysterious allure of socks made from this material. Recognizing the significance of materials we use daily in our global environment, I decided to focus on bamboo a material embedded in our daily wear.

Contributing to a Sustainable Society

In an era of abundance, understanding value becomes crucial. Ecology and sustainability are not distant issues but something each of us can tackle. Bamboo, growing rapidly, requires careful forest management. Increased use of bamboo aids in satoyama preservation. Embracing bamboo as an abundant and eco-friendly resource, socks made from bamboo like Take-Ashi contribute to a sustainable society.

MONOGATARI

Our company name, "MONOGATARI" is a combination of the words "product (MONO=mono)" and "story (MONOGATARI)".

From the birth of a product (mono) to the time it is used in someone's hands, there are indeed many stories to tell.

How did the developer come up with the idea of creating a product?
What kind of people are attracted to the product, and what kind of feelings do they have about the product?
What kind of feelings can be satisfied by the product?
The more attractive the product is, the more interesting and colorful its story becomes.
Through our products (mono), we want to connect the thoughts of the creators with the thoughts of you.

We want to create a variety of new stories for each of you.
This is the reason we named our company MONOGATARI.
We want to provide you with attractive products that can be told like a story and loved beyond the ages.

Commitment to Products:
I have always loved imported goods, and I was interested in things made in cultures different from Japan, with different values and ideas.

My life changed drastically when I visited an exhibition in Germany.
I encountered the passion for craftsmanship expressed by the makers of these products. This encounter was the starting point of my decision to start my own company.

I was drawn in by the story of the maker's passion and the history of the product until it was completed. I felt that I could move people's hearts by conveying the story that resides in the object on behalf of its creator.
I want to connect people to people and the world through objects, and I want as many people as possible to know the stories hidden in objects!

I was fascinated by the natural material wristwatches made by a small workshop in Kreuzberg, so much so that I was desperate to ask for a sales contract in Japan.

This encounter is the origin of MONOGATARI.
