Hayao Miyazaki’s film Princess Mononoke tells the story of Ashitaka, who journeys to a polluted forest in search of a cure to lift his curse. There, he encounters San, a girl raised by the wolf god, and the Forest Spirit, a symbol of nature’s power. By day, the Forest Spirit appears as a giant deer-like creature; by night, it transforms into the Night-Walker, possessing immense life-giving power. Humans destroy the forest in order to mine iron ore, provoking the Forest Spirit’s wrath. In the end, the Forest Spirit sacrifices itself in a desperate struggle to protect both the forest and humankind. This sacrifice awakens humanity’s conscience, leading people to finally realize the cost of destroying nature and reflect on their actions. Gradually, the forest begins to flourish again, and harmony is restored between humans and the natural world. Perhaps human existence itself can be harmful to the Earth. But as long as we become aware in time and begin protecting the environment through our own actions, there is still a chance to create a sustainable future for the next generation.

#Flip Socks Design
Inspired by a breathtaking photograph of a Formosan sambar deer taken on Qilai Mountain, one of Taiwan’s 100 Peaks, the design captures lush greenery, rolling mountain ridges, and mist drifting like a heavenly realm. Against this dreamlike backdrop, the deer appears as though the Forest Spirit from Princess Mononoke had descended into the scene. When the sock is flipped down, the Forest Spirit transforms into the Night-Walker, glowing from head to toe with a mysterious yet majestic aura. It symbolizes the anger and immense power of nature, representing a force that can be both protector and destroyer.
The original idea of FLIPPOS hosiery is to create a pair of compression stocking fulfilling functions in every way. You could wear it to the office and exercise after work as well. Simply with ONE SAME pair of stocking.
Considering that most people either sit or stand for a long time for work in which cause the fatigue condition upon feet and calf, we develop our hosiery to apply ‘graduated compression’ from the sole of the foot to calf to improve this situation.
Additionally, wearing FLIPPOS during exercise could reduce muscle vibration effectively, produce greater strength, and improve the speed of fatigue recovery after exercising.
Flip the length, flip the attitude.
In order to cater for any occasion and any outfit, FLIPPOS creates the first compression hosiery that can be folded. You could wear it knee-high or fold it to the calf. The item can be transformed into socks within seconds.
★Length BEFORE flipping: Knee-High
★Length AFTER flipping: 18cm above ankle
FLIPPOS MCP (Maze Cushioning Plus)
FLIPPOS’ ultimate goal is the pursuit of the ultimate product. This time we have upgraded our original patented maze cushioning to strengthen the sole’s “knitted maze damping.” Both the hardness and the rebound speed are significantly improved, so when running, jumping or climbing, the notable shock-absorbing effect means no loss of power and full athletic release.
