Tabio

I first visited Tabio while looking for a pair of tights for my mum’s bizarre collection. She loves combining different patterns and colors and it’s always a safe bet when I need to buy her a gift. It remains special though, and it’s such a fun thing to do! I saw Tabio on the 7^th floor at Hysan from the corner of my eye. It’s a little hidden and it shares the space with a shoe store, C.P.U. I had never been to this place, but they have around 6 outlets around Hong Kong.
Tabio basically sells Japanese designed socks. Yeah, it’s all about socks, in all forms, colors and patterns. And not only for girls, there’s some for kids and men. In fact, it was the men’s section that grabbed my attention, such cute-​elegant socks! The range is wider for women and I couldn’t choose which one I liked most. They have different shapes for different shoes: knee high, ankle high, for sandals, sports shoes, leg-​warmer (which I hadn’t seen in any store for a long time!), and leggings and prices are around 40 to 60 HKD. And it gets even more creative for kids; they have everything you can think of for the little ones!
Unfortunately I couldn’t find the tights I had in mind… but I decided it was time to introduce some change in my mum’s collection and bought her a pair of ankle high socks. I got the matt version for her and the shiny one for me!
