OUR MISSION

Crafted with Intention—ONGI was founded on the belief that everyday essentials should embody exceptional quality, thoughtful design, and enduring comfort. Through refined materials and advanced techniques, each pair is created to deliver lasting softness, durability, and understated elegance.

A Story Rooted in Gratitude—For our founder, Ellie Renfrow, ONGI is deeply personal. Once arriving in South Korea as a refugee with her family and very little, their lives were rebuilt through compassion, generosity, and hope. That journey shaped ONGI’s purpose: to create something meaningful that not only provides comfort, but also gives warmth back to others. 

Giving Through Every Purchase—With every pair purchased, $1 is donated to organizations supporting individuals experiencing homelessness and refugees. This ongoing commitment reflects ONGI’s dedication to pairing craftsmanship with purpose—transforming everyday essentials into a source of warmth, dignity, and meaningful impact.
