[Goodyear welted construction: Service shoes / Officer shoes]
Service shoes are shoes provided by the country (military) and are also referred to as "officer shoes." They are worn in scenes such as when wearing uniforms, during ceremonies, and for office work.
The shoes we are offering this time were produced for a certain European country, but due to differences in specifications, they could not be delivered and were left unused in the factory's warehouse. We have reused the upper and renewed the shoes for the Japanese market.
※Specification difference? → It was a mistake of accidentally attaching an 【outer eyelet】 to the shoelace eyelet part..

Manufacturing Method
Goodyear welted construction
[Upper] Cowhide (with silver, grain leather) ★During the final finishing of the upper, we do not apply any spray (lacquer) finishes to conceal imperfections, in order to maintain the natural characteristics of genuine leather, such as texture and breathability. Therefore, there may be small leather scratches or bloodlines. We appreciate your understanding.
[Sole] Leather sole with injection rubber: The contact surface is made of rubber. Instead of attaching rubber to the surface of the leather sole, it is made with rubber from the inside through injection processing, so the rubber will not peel off.
[Top Lift (Heel)] Military-spec synthetic rubber blend. A synthetic rubber that meets quite strict standards. It is a bit heavy, but it is strong against friction with the ground and has excellent durability.
[Lining] Full cowhide specification
【Midsole】 Cow Benz specification.

In the space between the upper's backside and the sole and midsole after the stitching, we abundantly fill it with Portuguese "granulated cork" (for the inner material). The more you wear it, the cork will "sink in" to match the shape of the wearer's foot, eventually transforming into an insole (midsole) that conforms to the shape of the wearer's foot.

【Lining Part Number】
The 【model number】 of the lining is different for each pair, unlike commercially available shoes.

[Wooden mold]
The last used is 【MOD】. The MOD last is a classic model that inherits British tradition. Its rounded and sturdy form is ideal for wider feet and larger sizes. The points and width of this shoe's circumference maintain a classic charm while providing a very comfortable fit.

[Others]
※As natural leather is used, there may be slight scratches, bloodlines, or unevenness derived from the natural leather.
*1 The shoe box uses white boxes made from recycled paper from Europe to reduce packaging costs. There may be minor scratches, stains, or scuffs, but we would appreciate your understanding.
Furthermore, the reduced package costs have been passed on to our customers.
*Since we use natural materials, there may be a characteristic (natural leather) smell, but this is not a defect.
If you are concerned, I think it would help to place it in a shaded, well-ventilated area, so please give it a try.
