They may not be the cutest socks we’ve seen recently, but these pressure point message fleece socks from Akaishi (1,890) are worth checking out.
Based on the theory of reflexology, the socks press into the soles of your feet at key spots that should help encourage the flow of energy through the body and the elimination of lactic acid crystals accumulated in tired feet. The socks have arch support too!
Likewise, these “goro goro” massage balls from Advancing (1,890) are also designed to ease tired feet, by simply running the sole of your foot over the balls wherever they need rubbing.
Easy to use and transport, the product is designed to be used at the office, on the airplane, or at home watching TV. The set come with two sizes of rubber, raspberry-looking balls: a larger one to stretch out the whole of your foot and a smaller one to apply to particular points.
“Goro goro” in Japanese is the sound of rumbling, although we’re not sure if that is the sound of the balls running under your feet, or the sound of your feet purring with relaxation. And no, we’re not sure why the set comes with its own special pink socks.
“Gorogoro” may be the sound of rumbling, but I’m more familiar with it as the “sound” of loafing around. Which, in this context, would make more sense.
The sound of “rolling around” is what is meant when applied to loafing around and being lazy. It’s all the same, and in this case I think you can do both.
