Footwear that feels as if you have stepped on something like a giant gel-like substance.
The outsole, which should originally be sturdy to support the entire body, is intentionally made into a fluid and soft shape, adding a playful touch to the design.
The rubber parts on the outside add an accent to the design.
The upper is finished delicately, contrasting with the voluminous sole.
The sharp shape, the cinch created at the arch, and the gentle slope from the toe to the heel give an elegant and sleek style that is not found in conventional sneakers.
The asymmetric layout of the knit upper with shoelace holes and patterns inherits the abstract outsole design.
The height of the rubber heel is approximately 7cm.
Despite the thick sole, it is designed to support the entire body with the sole and provide moderate cushioning, making it less tiring to walk.

A footwear brand supervised by designer Mikiro Sakabe, who works on MIKIO SAKABE.
Under the theme of 'bringing change to the relationship between humans and gravity (Earth)' and 'human development centered around the outsole, which is the contact point between humans and gravity (Earth) and the ground,' we are unveiling footwear with a voluminous and distinctive outsole combination.
