Limited Edition FIVES x TABIO WALK Collaboration Socks for Comfortable Summer Activities
In an exciting development for outdoor enthusiasts, Tabio Co., a renowned sock retailer based in Osaka, has partnered with Agro Works, a company known for its innovative products, to release a limited edition of the FIVES x TABIO WALK Magic Ice Ring 2026 model. This collaboration aims to provide optimal comfort during summer walks by combining specialty walking socks with a state-of-the-art neck cooler. The new product is specially designed to enhance the experience of walking during sweltering summer days by ensuring comfort at both the feet and neck.
This partnership marks the second year of collaboration between Tabio and Agro Works. The TABIO WALK series, known for its focus on supporting active users, has gained a loyal following, especially among walking enthusiasts. Similarly, Agro Works' FIVES Magic Ice Ring, a next-generation neck cooler, has rapidly gained traction among professionals, achieving impressive sales figures in just over a year.
This year, responding to customer requests for summer use and sports activities, the collaboration has evolved to include a special edition featuring co-branded logos. The goal is to integrate Tabio's strength in foot care with FIVES' cooling technology, allowing users to enjoy a more comfortable walking experience amid the summer heat.
The TABIO WALK series was born out of the company's desire to facilitate healthier and more comfortable walking habits for its customers. With increasing health consciousness and the popularity of walking as a regular form of exercise, the series specifically caters to the needs of daily walkers. Each product features specially engineered attributes, such as pile cushioning to alleviate foot pressure, a mesh structure to reduce moisture inside shoes, and arch support to facilitate a smooth walking motion. These features help combat fatigue during long walks and make the socks suitable for both casual wear and everyday walking.
Key styles include ‘Wide Opening Mesh Pile Socks,’ perfect for summer due to their superior breathability, and ‘Wide Opening Pile Socks,’ which offer exceptional comfort thanks to their cushioning. With these varied options, the series continues to support the needs of active users.
The Magic Ice Ring stands out as it maintains an ultra-cool temperature of about 18°C, providing immediate and sustained cooling upon contact with the skin, in stark contrast to typical neck coolers that freeze at a higher temperature (25-28°C). Users can expect intense cooling sensations to last from 60 to 90 minutes, depending on environmental conditions. Its unique flat design allows for optimal cooling airflow over a wider area of the neck, helping to alleviate body heat holistically. Moreover, the Magic Ice Ring can be easily re-frozen in just 10-20 minutes in a cooler or conventional freezer, making it a green alternative to battery-operated devices.
The materials used prioritize safety and durability, utilizing plant-derived cooling agents and high-quality materials like TPU and polycarbonate, ensuring a long lifespan.
The collaboration offers several purchase options:
These limited-edition products are currently available for purchase through the official Tabio online store and at approximately 50 Tabio retail locations across Japan, from Hokkaido to Kyushu. Customers can find this fantastic combination of comfort and cooling technology just in time for the summer season.
Agro Works, located in Kobe and led by CEO Chinen Kaneka, operates under the mission of uplifting and beautifying the workforce. They focus on blending functionality with stylish designs in the workwear sector, proudly featuring their flagship brand, FIVES. On the other hand, Tabio Co. has honed its craft for over 50 years, striving to create socks that feel like a second skin. As of May 2026, Tabio has expanded to 226 specialized stores across Japan and continues gaining international recognition for its quality and design.
Through this collaboration, both companies showcase their commitment to enhancing comfort and performance during the heat of summer, making the FIVES x TABIO WALK lineup a must-have for anyone looking to stay cool and comfortable while staying active.
