Many leather shoes are still made for wide feet. However, now more and more people have thin feet with low insteps, and according to the latest foot shape survey by the Japan Leather Industry Federation, about half of men under the age of 44 have slightly narrow feet (JIS width E or below). In order to create leather shoes that fit the feet of today’s Japanese people, seven leather shoe manufacturers (*) in Nara, one of Japan’s leading leather shoe production areas, jointly developed the Nara last for men’s shoes. “Nara Kigata” is available in 12 sizes and 2 widths (foot widths), for a total of 24 different fit combinations. We can create shoes that provide a comfortable fit for Japanese people, who have a variety of foot shapes, from thin and narrow feet to high insteps and wide feet. Leather shoe manufacturers in Nara manufacture “Nara Wooden Shoes” using this “Nara Wooden Shoe”, and each shoe is available in 24 different fits to fit the diverse foot shapes of Japanese people. We will be holding an order event for these “Nara wooden shoes” at the Maison de F department on the 4th floor of Takasaki Takashimaya for three weeks from March 19th (Wednesday) to April 8th (Tuesday), 2025. • Takasaki Takashimaya’s business hours are 10:00-19:00. • On the final day, April 8th (Tuesday), the event will close at 17:00. This is an event where you will select 5 different designs of “Nara wooden shoes” from 3 Nara leather shoe manufacturers, try on samples of each size and width, choose the size that fits best, your favorite design, and color, and place your order. The shoes you ordered will be manufactured in Nara and delivered in early June. Of course, you are also welcome to just try it on. We look forward to welcoming all shoe lovers to our booth during this period.
