Fashion Brand Profile and Stories
// INTERVIEW with Nison Chan, Founder

Socks is potentially one of the last few things we see before we leave home.

1.Where do you seek inspiration for your collections?

In regards to our brand concept, I seek inspiration from life experiences, be it positive or negative. Everyone needs a daily dosage of positivity before we leave home everyday. So I thought, why not through socks? Socks is potentially one of the last few things we see before we leave home.

So that moment could be crucial to motivate the individual. More importantly, I wanted to influence a culture that could allow people to stand out tall against their worst fears, conquer their negativities and challenge their difficulties.

2.Which one is your favourite piece from your collection and why?

It’s called The Opportunist, with a beautiful floral design. The quote says ‘Take Chances’. It is meaningful to me, as I believe at every stage of our lives, we encounter certain moments when we need to make huge decisions. I would say, why not take chances? Because really, it’s all going to be worth it in the end. Believe in the biggest miracles and they’ll come to pass. Take chances with life.

3. When you are creating a piece or a collection, how does the process work?

I gain inspiration from patterns and colours, or basically anything in life.  We match the designs and colours to the fashion seasons too. Once we have a design, we fit in a quote that best represents it, taking into considerations of the ‘feel’ we have towards it.

4.How did you get into designing socks?

I don’t really design socks. I work with designers, mainly conveying my concept and planning the colour concepts and patterns with them. We then run through the final drafts together before deciding on them and taking it to our manufacturers. They do most of the hard work. I basically run the business side of our label.

5.If you weren’t a designer, what would you be?

A soldier. And probably a farmer after that.

5. Your favourite moment of the day?

Spending quality time with my family or closed mates over dinner or drinks after a long day. I live for the happy and simple life, spending time with the people I love most.
