This popular sandal series is carefully crafted by artisans in Nagata, Kobe, known for its shoe production. This time, we made Gurkha sandals using Himeji leather, which becomes more beautiful the more you use it. The elegant design shows off your feet, while the upper part is made of mesh that feels good against the skin, and the highly resilient insole makes the sandals comfortable and cling to your feet, preventing blisters. Please enjoy the comfort of the craftsmen's attention to detail that resides in your feet.
Shoemaking is so popular in Nagata, Kobe that it is known as the "town where people wear shoes to their heart's content." Shoemaking specialists, who require a large number of parts, come together and work together to make a pair of shoes. To cut genuine leather, a template with a blade is placed on top of the leather, and each part is pressed into a cutting machine. Taking into consideration the differences in texture of the leather, such as scratches and tiger patterns, the process is carried out by the eyes and hands of skilled craftsmen to avoid waste.
