【Why These Zori are Special】 Ultimate Custom-Made: These are a one-of-a-kind item, custom-made by a craftsman to fit someone who wears 26.5cm (US8.5) in Nike or NB shoes. This combination of size and design will never be available again. Highest Quality, Rare Material: "Shichitoi" Rush: The base uses Shichitoi rush, which is 5-6 times stronger than igusa (rush grass). This extremely valuable material is currently only produced in Anki Town, Oita Prefecture. Compared to regular zori, it is superior in durability and moisture absorption, and it conforms to your feet the more you wear them. High-Performance Vibram Sole: The outsole uses a high-performance sole made by the Italian company Vibram, which is also used in mountaineering boots and other boots. By combining traditional manufacturing methods with the latest technology, it achieves a tough and non-slip modern feel. Sophisticated Custom Design: The thong has a **three-dimensional scale-like pattern (python pattern)**, adding a touch of elegance to your feet. The tip of the thong features a charming Daruma design, giving a sense of playfulness and good luck. The base is all black, highlighting the beautiful weave of the Shichitoi rush, a simple yet deep design. 【Size and Condition】 Suitable Size: Approximately 26.5cm (US8.5) Outsole Length: Approximately 27cm Outsole Maximum Width: Approximately 12cm Point: It is considered "stylish" to have your heel slightly exposed. Condition: I have hardly used them, and they are generally in good condition. Due to the characteristics of natural materials, there is some slight fraying unique to Shichitoi, but the Vibram sole is tough and there is no significant damage. You can still enjoy them for a long time. The pinnacle of Made in Japan, combining the skills of craftsmen with modern technology. These are a special pair that will add elegant individuality to not only traditional Japanese attire but also casual Western clothing. Please consider this ultimate "one-of-a-kind" item on this occasion. #草履也 #ZORIYA #七島藺草履 #Vibram #ビブラムソール #オーダーメイド #一点物 #ダルマ #和モダン #Waraji #雪駄 #MadeinJapan #26.5cm #US8.5 #パイソン
