This is the Hender Scheme [エンダースキーマ] homage series, mip23. Regularly released by the brand, this popular item reconstructs well-known masterpiece shoes using the reserch shoes manufacturing method, "manual industrial products," (commonly known as "mip") leather shoes. These leather shoes are made by craftsmen using traditional methods and handwork, with a limited production run each season. The brand explores the fun and possibilities of creating products by hand, intentionally avoiding the industrially perfected aspects of production efficiency and functionality. The shoes are newly carved from wooden lasts and constructed entirely of leather, down to the smallest details. The concept and appeal of mip lies in the coexistence of "déjà vu" and "never seen before" – the feeling of "I recognize it, but it's different." It has an artistic aspect that appeals to the user's sensibilities. While faithfully reproducing the details, the brand is committed to using only organic materials throughout, and even the parts that would normally be finished with laces or metal fittings are all expressed in leather. The designer's philosophy is that "a product becomes complete only through use." The quiet contrast is created by the cutting of various leathers. You can enjoy the different aging of each leather part. These are exceptional items that you will grow to love the more you wear them.
