Founded 95 years ago, Iwasa is committed to producing domestically made products, even developing their own adhesives in Japan, which are high-quality, safe, and environmentally friendly.
Their comfortable and durable sandals are created using carefully selected materials and expert craftsmanship.
The soles feature two types of cushioning materials with different firmness levels on the entire footbed, and they use a rubber sole that is slip-resistant and easy to walk on.
Each pair is carefully handcrafted by skilled artisans, achieving both the highest level of comfort and beautiful aesthetics.

The middle layer of the three-tiered sandals features Hakata-ori fabric with BOKUSYO patterns.
These sandals have no distinction between left and right. The design is crafted with the idea that switching between feet will give the sandals a different appearance each time.
By alternating between left and right, you can also extend the lifespan of the sandals.
The greatest strength of Iwasa’s sandals is their exceptional comfort.
We want you to enjoy wearing these sandals not only with kimono but also with any style of clothing.
A beautiful pair of footwear boosts your confidence and will take you to wonderful places.

As for my work, I don’t want to create pieces driven by my ego or impulsiveness.

Instead, I aim to create works that can deeply resonate with and linger in people’s hearts.
