A Cozy Revolution: The Gorilla Haku-Hokaron Socks

The realm of cozy homewear takes a delightful turn with the debut collaboration between the Gorilla Series and Haku-Hokaron. The new socks, aptly named "Gorilla no Haku-Hokaron," blend the warmth of Haku-Hokaron with the playful spirit of the Gorilla brand. Launching on September 18, 2026, these innovative socks will be available through the official Doshisha online store and nationwide retailers.

Background of the Collaboration

Doshisha Co., Ltd., based in Osaka, has joined forces with Renfro Japan Co., Ltd., producers of Haku-Hokaron, to create socks that are not only warm but also prioritize foot health. This collaboration combines the comforting warmth of the Haku-Hokaron series with the rejuvenating benefits of the Gorilla Series, particularly their calf care products, to enhance home living during the colder months.

The socks are designed to provide a comforting embrace for the feet while using plush cushioning to promote toe space and relaxation, making them perfect companions for lounging or unwinding after a long day.

Product Features

Refreshing Toe Space

Ideal for those often constrained by footwear, these socks feature a specialized design that allows for toe separation and expansion. The plush cushioning ensures a delightful experience, perfect for relaxation.

Luxurious Boa Material

Crafted from soft boa fabric, this product promises to envelop your feet in warmth during chilly weather. The toe-separating loop is also designed with boa material to prevent discomfort between the toes.

Variety Galore

Customers can choose between two lengths, crew and high socks, with the latter available in both with and without compression. Overall, there are eight options to accommodate various preferences and situations, including color choices.

Playful Collaborative Design

The playful design features the Haku-Hokaron logo on the sole, complemented by a charming gorilla patch on the side of the right foot, showcasing the fun spirit of this collaboration.

Illustrative Packaging

The unique packaging depicts a gorilla playfully spreading its toes, inviting customers to consider their foot comfort. The message, "Do you have worries about your toes?" adds a comedic touch, making the unboxing experience delightful. It also includes a clever logo that contrasts Haku-Hokaron's iconic magic carpet character with the gorilla collaboration.

About the Gorilla Series

The Gorilla Series has achieved remarkable sales, surpassing 4 million units, thanks to its impactful design and humor-infused products. The series began with the Gorilla no Hitotsukami calf care gadget, catering to the real needs of consumers with innovative solutions.
