The thong is red with a white komon pattern (likely a traditional Japanese pattern such as hemp leaf or cherry blossom), creating a vivid and eye-catching design. The platform is made of lightweight paulownia wood, and its surface is carved with a pattern resembling plant leaves, finished with lacquer. It's a beautiful type, similar to the "okobo (poppy clogs)" worn by maiko, without teeth, and the entire platform is formed from a thick single board.
