**Why collaborate with Rui-Chiu?**
S: I found her picture book "The House with Long Legs" incredibly engaging. The art style isn't meticulously realistic; instead, it possesses a charmingly distorted quality. The "Qilou," a distinctive Taiwanese streetscape, is depicted through the artist's memories and feelings, presented from a first-person perspective where everyday life unfolds naturally within its structure. At the time, I was looking to diversify Southgate's product offerings and had an idea: "What if we could transform feet into Qilou, and turn these unique Taiwanese life imprints into socks? That could be quite interesting."

**Sudden Downpour**
Often forgetting my umbrella, I find refuge under the arcades during the sudden summer downpours that arrive without warning. Watching others depart with their umbrellas, I secretly hope for someone to appear from the rain and walk towards me.

The socks feature different embroidered designs on each foot. One depicts a little girl waiting under the arcade for her mother, while the other shows a mother in a yellow raincoat, holding an umbrella, rushing to pick up her child. This sudden summer afternoon downpour becomes a connection to that simple love.
