Today marks the "First Day of Autumn" (Risshu) on the traditional calendar.
Although autumn has officially begun, the severe summer heat still continues outside.
While we spend more time under the dazzling sun, do you ever feel a sudden chill around your ankles or deep within your body after being exposed to air-conditioned rooms?
Scorching heat outside, freezing air inside.
In this season of extreme temperature differences, "hidden chills" can easily accumulate in our bodies without us even realizing it.
This week, we introduce a collection of natural fiber items that gently protect your body from air-conditioning chills and provide cozy comfort well into the coming season.
With the excellent moisture-wicking and heat-retaining properties of silk and hemp, these items keep your skin dry from sweat while comfortably warming your feet and body.
We hope this feature will inspire you to gently pamper your hardworking body.
01. For relaxing at home and sleeping
［ NISHIGUCHI KUTSUSHITA ］Silk Cotton Home Socks
"I feel a chill around my ankles when I'm barefoot," or "My feet feel cold when sleeping with the AC on."
These socks are knitted with smooth, moisturizing silk on the inside against the skin, and durable cotton on the outside.
They offer a gentle fit that loosely wraps your feet without any tightness.
Perfect for relaxing in your room or as sleeping socks, they softly warm your feet from the toes up to the ankles.
02. For your days off. A playful touch for your summer casual style
［ NISHIGUCHI KUTSUSHITA ］Silk Cotton Plain Socks
"Perfect for air-conditioning protection when going out to cafes or movie theaters on your days off."
A casual sock featuring a natural texture, blended with silk spun yarn and recycled cotton.
The bicolored lines on the toe and cuff add a subtle accent to your summer styling.
Even on active days moving around in sneakers or sandals, the moisture-regulating effect of silk releases sweat and keeps your feet fresh while protecting them from indoor chills.
03. Bridging the gap between sweaty feet and air conditioning
［ NISHIGUCHI KUTSUSHITA ］Hemp Cotton Ribbed Socks
"For active days where you sweat heavily outside and cool down rapidly indoors."
Made with a blend of hemp, which has a natural crispness and quick-drying properties, and cotton.
They quickly release sweat to keep you dry outside, and firmly protect your feet from the cold in air-conditioned rooms.
The crisp and clean comfort will refresh your tired summer feet.
04. An elegant double-layered design to warm the feet of adult women
［ hakne ］Silk Cotton Double Face Socks
"For those who cannot compromise on either exceptional comfort or an elegant look."
Perfect for refined, everyday life.
Luxuriously knitted with a double-face structure, featuring high-quality cotton on the outside and silk on the inside.
With a soft, cushioned feel, they gently insulate your toes, which are prone to getting cold.
In calm and elegant colors, they add a subtle hint of autumn to your summer outing styles.
05. "Summer Warming" to heat your whole body from the stomach and lower back
［ memeri ］Silk Body Warmer Regular / Long
"For overall body concerns like feeling a chill around your stomach or lower back due to cold drinks or air conditioning."
A surprisingly thin and stretchy body warmer made with plenty of silk.
Because it remains seamless under clothes, you can wear it neatly even under thin summer garments.
Warming the stomach and lower back improves blood circulation throughout the body, making it ideal for physical condition management at the end of summer.
You can choose between the regular length and the long length that comfortably covers your hips.
As we tend to drink cold beverages and spend long hours in air-conditioned rooms, it is important to treat your body with the warmth of natural materials now more than ever.
Although the hot days will continue, we hope you stay healthy and comfortable by caring for the chills from your feet and the core of your body.
