Stocking Material Arm Covers See Unprecedented Hit! Sales Volume Exceeds 800% Year-on-Year!

Fukuske Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Koto-ku, Tokyo / President and Representative Director: Tomoya Sakamoto) is experiencing explosive popularity with its "Manzoku" "Arm Covers That Won't Lose to the Sun" and "Matou, UV Veil" arm covers, which are made from thin stocking fabric yet achieve a UV shielding rate of over 90%. Both of these arm cover products using stocking fabric have become explosive bestsellers on our online store (Fukuske Online Store https://www.fukuske.com) this year.

"Manzoku" "Arm Covers That Won't Lose to the Sun" debuted in the Spring/Summer 2024 season. "Matou, UV Veil" went on sale in February of this year. While conventional beige stocking fabric could not achieve high shielding rates, "Manzoku" "Arm Covers That Won't Lose to the Sun" achieves over 90% shielding rate through processing with special technology. In contrast, "Matou, UV Veil" is the first in the industry to adopt a material that is highly transparent and vibrant while also having a high UV shielding rate, achieving over 90% UV shielding rate despite being an extremely thin fabric like stockings. Although both products are made with different technologies, their concepts, functions, and appearance are nearly identical.

Considering that both products have almost the same functional features, the sales performance of "Manzoku" "Arm Covers That Won't Lose to the Sun" from January to May 2025 and the combined sales of both "Manzoku" "Arm Covers That Won't Lose to the Sun" and "Matou, UV Veil" from January to May of this year have already exceeded 800% year-on-year. Currently, some items are out of stock on the Fukuske Online Store, but we are strengthening our production system to meet demand as the hot season approaches.

Sales of both products have significantly increased on the Fukuske Online Store since February of this year, and we have realized the high interest in UV protection even during the still chilly season.
