Looking for the perfect accessory to add character to your outfits? Retro striped socks are made for you. Inspired by the 70s and 80s, they bring a vintage and authentic touch, ideal for a trendy and timeless “Back to School” style.

An American classic reinvented

Two-tone socks with two or three stripes at the top were once the symbol of American sports and college life. Basketball, tennis, college uniforms… Today, they are reinvented for everyday wear, adding a bold and recognizable detail that transforms any outfit.

The American influence on Japanese fashion

Retro American style has had a profound influence on Japanese fashion. Since the 70s, Japan has reinterpreted these classics to create a unique mix of preppy, streetwear, and kawaii (cute) aesthetics. On the streets of Tokyo, this style is everywhere: visible socks, sneakers, pleated skirts, and oversized sweaters.

Japanese brands like Tabio draw inspiration from this vintage American look, while adding local touches: subtle colors, quality fabrics, and attention to detail. The result? A Japanese take on retro American style that is chic, functional, and playful, perfect for back to school or everyday wear.
