Description: "I realized that these shoes are produced just like pottery" The hallmark of Shoes Like Pottery is the vulcanizing, or ka-ryu, process in Japanese, performed by only a select handful of shoe manufacturers around the world.In the ka-ryu process, each shoe is fired in a kiln which causes the sulfur mixed inside the raw rubber to chemically react, returning the rubber to its natural elasticity and creating a soft, flexible, and durable sole.Above all, Shoes Like Pottery features high-quality, beautifully textured fabric, hand-sewn by the skilled craftsmen of Kurume.Now available in the U.S. for the first time in history, we are eager to share the story of Shoes Like Pottery and the ka-ryu process that has been cultivated over the years. * Originally purchased in Germany and worn only a few times - you can refer to photos for condition.
