How it all began...
My Story
Hi there! I see that you have landed on the about me page, meaning you are probably wanting to know a little more about my story.
I come from a background in Industrial Design. I've always wanted to start my own business journey in the design field, but never had an idea that sparked my interest.
Until one night......
Me, my gf and my flatmates were having dinner at home, Karaage chicken to be more specific. I had a Kewpie Mayo right in front of me, and I had an idea came to mind. "Wouldn't it be cool if there was Kewpie Mayonnaise socks? I would so wear it, I think many people would love it too"
The idea further established from there, more design ideas came to mind through discussions with my partner and friends. Boba, Ramen, Sushi, Sriracha and Soju, all of which we all (including you) deeply love.
Your now thinking, but where are the Kewpie socks? Don't worry guys, it is coming. I just couldn't make it look cute enough to bring to market. But it is coming, so stay tuned!
So that's how it all started!
These socks are designed for you or that person in your life who doesn’t like to be too formal. They want to have fun when dressing up whether it be in their 9-5 job, on the weekends or that special event.
Would love to see you wearing my socks.

Let customers speak for us
from 605 reviewsSuper comfy, warm & soft .
I ordered the small & Im a size 8 1/2 female .. glad i didnt get the medium as its quite wide
Super cute baby socks! Love that we can match as a whole family, they’re super soft and have more grippy dots on the bottom compared to other baby socks out there which is safer for baby to run around!
I got a pair of the Soju slippers for my brother's bday and a pair of the bubble tea for myself. The quality is fantastic and they are very comfortable. My brother even commented that they didnt make his feet sweaty lol!
Shin helped me out with sizing and the recommendation was perfect!
Very happy customers here!
They’re just as comfy as they are cute! They’re the socks I always grab from the fresh laundry basket to put on haha. This pack was split for myself and two gifts other I was putting together. Always excited to know what designs they’ll come up with next…
My favorite socks so comfy
First purchase, second time proud owner of these gems. Previously gifted a few pairs as part of a birthday gift. Comfortable, durable and so cute. What's not to love?
Perfect fit and they feel so nice and comfortable. Very soft.
Gotta luv a bubble tea slipper. They are super soft and comfy. Think I need a few more to give as perfect gifts. I think I need matching PJ’s.
These socks are great quality, have lovely designs, and feel so nice to wear.
I have ordered many products from Shin and am never disappointed! They always arrive quickly and always a quality product! Make amazing gifts - after I have kept my choice first!
You will never regret purchasing from Shin!
Lovely quirky slippers. They are so soft and comfy
Can’t complain!
Bubble Tea Slippers
I have some boba socks and boba slippers. The socks are great quality and comfy while on my feet all day. I love the slippers, they are so soft underfoot and the different sizes mean that they fit my size 41.
I have purchased socks “By Shin” before and more recently was lucky enough to show them off on a trip to Japan. People often commented on their gimmicky designs. I just bought some more to compliment some new clothes, they are sweet and make me smile when I wear them.
