Key Benefits
- Full Grain Italian Leather: Our luxury leather is the best in the world. It is extremely soft and doesn’t need to use plastic paints to cover up imperfections. Unlike cheaper leathers it won’t crack, or lose its shape. Our leather will mold to the shape of your feet over time, providing that custom fit and enhanced comfort. The durability of genuine leather means these are built to last.
- Goodbye Creasing: While all sneakers will crease, our does the minimal amount possible. We tested 100s of different leathers and backers, and found some that provide extreme comfort without extreme creasing. These keep the FOB (fresh out of the box) look!
- Natural Rubber Bottom: Our 100% biodegradable natural rubber is extremely soft while maintaining its shape. It’s like you’re walking on a cloud
- Waxed Laces: We know how important it is to look fresh…nobody wants dirty laces. So, we took the extra step of waxing our laces to keep them looking clean for longer. If they ever get dirty, let us know and we’ll send you a new pair.
- Calf Leather Interior Lining: The inside of the shoe is covered in supple calf leather for an amazing feel, and lifetime of comfort and good smells. So cheap cloth that absorbs smells!
- Unapologetically Asian American: We are Asian. We are Asian American. As good as our shoes look and feel, when we’re inside, we leave our shoes at the door. That’s how we were raised.
