Founded in 1950 by Katsuji Nishiguchi in Nara, Japan, Knitwin began with a single hand-cranked knitting machine and has since grown into a premier sock manufacturer. Now led by third-generation director Isato Nishiguchi, the company blends decades of artisanal expertise with modern technology to produce its three distinct in-house labels: NISHIGUCHI KUTSUSHITA, hakne, and memeri.
