The String Tong lines
Our brand is symbolized by string lines, each representing the essentials of our product. Lines are essential in life’s organization and function.They intertwine, link, attach, maintain, and infinite! You will noticeably find those string lines on our shoes, as well as our packaging, banner displays, catalogs, postcards, and other marketing items.

The string lines are not only the poster face of our company but also our philosophy. Like the strings, we are strongly connected to each other professionally yet we are vivid and flexible.
