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 706 reviewsMade an order over the busy Xmas period, and my order sent out extremely quick :) . Unfortunately AusPost let us down by losing the parcel.
Not to worry, Shin was excellent at following up and correcting the situation. I was kept well informed and my order was resent. Very happy customer!
What a legend!
I purchased 3 pairs, 2 being gifts.
They arrived and noted one pair had some issues, I reached out to Shin, responded straight away and immediately rectified the issue.
Love the professionalism.
Have to support small businesses.
Cheers Shin.
The quality and comfort of the socks and slippers are unbeatable! The designs are also super cute. 100% recommend as a gift (or even something cozy for yourself).
Shin responded really quickly and provided quality slippers. Designs were exactly like the website photos.
I love the pair so much. I bought it as a gift and ended up getting another pair because its so fluffy and warm, can be used both indoor and outdoor
Very comfy and super cute
I bought these matcha slippers as a gift for my friend and he loved them! I am keen to buy a pair for myself especially after just getting back from Japan 🥰
Got it as a gift to a friend, the design is so cute ☺️
Really cute slippers, but even better, they are so comfortable!
Bought these and the matching Onigiri socks for my partner for Christmas (which she absolutely adored).
They came beautifully packaged, exactly as described, posted quickly and the quality is outstanding. Highly recommend!
Arrived promptly, product is exactly as advertised, and sizing was perfect too! Thank you!
I had been seeing these everywhere on social media and they look just like the videos. A very cute set and bright colours.
I'd been planning on buying slippers from Shin for AGES and so SO wish I bought them earlier. They are amazing, so cute yes, but so SO comfortable and the quality is amazing! They are far superior to other cute trendy slippers I'd bought from some of Aus's bigger brands. And the socks are brilliant, so comfy - and thick, not thin to wear out quickly.
So glad I bought two bundles haha!
These not only look good but they are super comfortable. Bought for a gift but I may need a pair also.
so cute and comfy, loved the packaging, all came in pristine condition, a lot of attention to detail!
