Dear Valued International Customers,

It’s almost "Pantsu (Underwear) Day," August 2nd!
Did you know that?
First, let us give you a little trivia about the word about underwear. Hope you will enjoy it.
In Japanese, the word "pantsu" written in Katakana expresses the English word of "pants," and it originally meant underwear, but it has come to mean pants and trousers as well.
Back in 1984, an underwear manufacturer in Nara Prefecture, Japan, designated and named August 2nd as "Pantsu Day", after the name of one of their products, and made it  an annual celebration of underwear.
It is easy to remember because it plays on the Japanese word for underwear which is "pantsu," as well as the Japanese pronunciations for eight (sometimes similar to "pan"), as in the eighth month, and two ("tsu" similar to English word "2"), as in the 2nd day of the month.
Since 2003, August 5th has been designated as Underwear Day overseas for a different reason, but both dates are very close.
So we would like to take this time to celebrate our underwear culture worldwide.
We go about our lives wearing underwear 24/7, whether we are awake or asleep.
On this once-a-year August 2nd, let us focus on the underwear we rely on every day and enjoy a happy life with your favorite underwear!

Our products are carefully crafted with attention to detail, including the fabric, stitching, and specifications so that everyone can use them comfortably for a long time.
We pay extreme attention to the overall quality of our products and strive to satisfy our customers all over the world.
As a result, we are truly honored to receive happy feedback from many customers, such as the person who has been using the same underwear for over 10 years.
TOOT is not a so-called fast fashion brand, nor a mass-producer of consumable goods, as you may already know.
Instead, we will continue to prioritize comfort and quality above all else, offering products that are useful not only in everyday life for everyone who wears them, but also for special occasions as "specialty underwear" that is not influenced by trends or temporary preferences.

Our goal is not to treat underwear as a consumable commodity, but to let everyone experience and enjoy the attention to detail and care that we put into each and every product. We will continue to strive to make our manufacturing resonate with even more people.

We have also created a new page on our website that showcases our brand, including interviews with skilled artisans from our factory, so if you have not read it yet, we hope you will check it out.

■Tips for washing with a laundry net
- Place ONLY ONE pair of underwear in one laundry net. This will reduce the friction of the fabric inside the net. Also, leaving some space in the net will allow the water and detergent to penetrate and clean the entire underwear.
- Turn the underwear INSIDE OUT before placing it in the net. This will also reduce damage to the outside of the fabric. Then carefully zip up the laundry net for washing.
- Laundry nets are also consumables. When they are worn out, please do not continue to use them, and instead, we recommend that you purchase new ones from general stores, such as laundry article stores, etc.

■To keep your underwear comfortable longer.
- Please use laundry nets when washing.
- Use a neutral detergent that does not contain optical brighteners.
- Dark-colored products may stain other fabrics, so wash those products separately.
- After spin-drying, return the product to its original shape and dry immediately in a shaded, airy area.
- Avoid wearing when wet or leaving the product wet for extended periods of time.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight as this may cause discoloration or loss of its original color and deterioration of the material.
- Do not tumble dry.
- For better care, please refer to the care instruction symbols on the label that is sewn inside each product and/or on each product page on our website.

■Lastly
And we, TOOT, are doing our best to deliver special quality from production to the moment the product reaches you, the customer.
So, as a novelty item for this year's campaign, we have prepared a laundry net to reduce the damage caused by machine washing, so that our customers can maintain the high quality of our products for a long time even after use.

Last but not least, we are very grateful to all of you.
