The owner says they are from taiwan and are called flying fox. They fit the discriptions(from my view) from the FAQ, however, they look different from the pairs I brought from eco-culture.

    Maybe i heard wrongly. Sorry . I went to the shop today and then eco-culture. They both look alike. I will check it out tomw again. I will open my eyes WIDE this time.
