The box is not included; it will be shipped with a thickness of 4 cm. I received this from a relative, but I don't think I'll have a chance to use it, so I'm offering it for sale. Due to long-term storage, it feels a bit sticky. When I tried it on with tabi socks, it wasn't very noticeable, but if you are concerned, please refrain from purchasing as it is a defective item. Therefore, I've priced it very cheaply. "Gotō-himo" is a braided cord established by the late Toshitaro Gotō, an Intangible Cultural Property holder. It incorporates techniques used for the cords of samurai helmets during the Warring States period and is the originator of the braided cords used for the Imperial family's zori (sandals). The platform is gold-colored. The thong uses the braided cord obi fabric of the Intangible Cultural Property "Gotō-himo," and is very soft and made thick, providing excellent comfort. The size is approximate as it is measured by an amateur. Length: Approximately 23 cm, Width: Approximately 8 cm, Height (heel): Approximately 4 cm I have listed a long-term storage item, so if you are concerned about scratches that are barely noticeable on the surface, please refrain from purchasing.
