Behind The Label

Flower Mountain's story began with a chance meeting between Mr. Keisuke Ota, a self-taught shoe designer from Japan, and Mr. Yang Chao, a head designer for prominent Chinese and international brands. Their conversation revealed shared passions for mountain trekking, nature, and music-interests that have become integral to the Flower Mountain brand.

Bonding over their common interests, they decided to attend the Mount Fuji Rock Festival, where the concept of creating functional yet stylish footwear emerged. In 2015, alongside Federica Wang, they founded the Dandelion Mountaineering Association and later established Breath Design Co. Ltd in Tokyo. This collaboration led to the creation of their first shoe collection.

Flower Mountain's designs were quickly embraced by Shoes Bar Beijing and HPF in Tokyo, receiving an enthusiastic response from the public. In 2016, Breath Design partnered with Shoes Bar and the Italian company Falc S.p.A., propelling Flower Mountain to new heights and launching it onto the international stage.
