Cute red and white animal-motif waraji (straw sandals). I purchased these at the end of June this year for my child's first birthday celebration, specifically for the mochi-fumi (rice cake stomping) ceremony. They were only used once for the ceremony. After that, they were stored in the original bag. Upon inspection, I found some areas of darker pink discoloration on the pink rubber parts (see photo 1), but I'm not sure if this was present from the time of purchase. I welcome purchases from those who understand the nature of used items. Thank you for looking.
