Brand Description
The production of work tabi (split-toed heavy cloth shoes with rubber soles) provided the impetus for the manufacturing of footwear to be continued for a long time in Kurume, a town renowned for rubber production. The shoes produced at our in-house factory in Kurume are made with skills and experiences that are honed from a rich history. Since our establishment in 1873, our company has aimed to make shoes that provide comfort for everyone. We are still producing shoes that are a manifestation of our pride and confidence, which is gained from making shoes seriously from our establishment till today. We employ the vulcanizing method that can only be employed in a few factories in Japan.
