Yetina
An apparel brand launched in 2016 by Washio Corporation, which was founded in 1955 as a sock manufacturer. Using a special, brushed fabric that has been patented for over 40 years since its development, the company designs products together with external partners who are well-versed in outdoor activities. While maintaining a high level of heat retention, they pursue simple designs that provide stress-free comfort and versatility, whether worn outdoors or in the city.
What is Yetina's craftsmanship?
Learn from past events and the lessons of our predecessors, and apply them to current events.
The company that develops Yetina was founded in Kakogawa City, Hyogo Prefecture, which once prospered as a sock manufacturing center. 40 years ago, a machine was invented with unique modifications to produce raised fabrics, and is still in use today, with repeated maintenance and adjustment by engineers.
The apparel brand Yetina was created by utilizing the technology that such a long-established company takes pride in.
The technology that has warmed many people over its long history of trying to eliminate “cold” from Japan, is now being utilized in the outdoors to create a more comfortable time for more people.
Brand's Signature Gear
Yetina pullover hoodie
Yetina’s first product and now a classic: the pullover hoodie. The raised fabric, made with a unique patented technology, is extremely warm and soft. The fabric is a blend of acrylic, nylon, and wool, lighter than fabrics made of 100% natural fibers, with a knitted construction that provides excellent stretch and does not restrict mobility. The clean, finished silhouette makes it ideal for innerwear in extremely cold weather as it reduces the bulkiness of layering.
