About the original
The Hoto Hand Tool Set packs an adjustable wrench, needle-nose pliers, a magnetic hammer with a removable rubber cap, a manual screwdriver with ten S2 alloy-steel bits, and a ten-foot self-locking tape measure into a snap-fit ABS case. Hoto is a Shenzhen-based smart-tool brand in the Xiaomi ecosystem, founded in 2018 and known for compact, color-coordinated household tools designed for apartment use rather than the job site. The set was nominated for an iF Design Award in 2022 for its compact layout and muted color palette. The Supreme SS2023 version is the same five tools and case produced in red with Supreme branding applied to each piece, distributed through the standard Supreme weekly drop.
