Ashinaka Zori (Half-Sole Sandals) Using Natural Straw (No. 100) Actual Size (Total Length): 15-16 cm Thong: Hemp cord Thong Fabric: Cotton Thank you for viewing. Zori that are about half the length of regular sandals, and that do not have a heel, are collectively called "Ashinaka" (half-sole). The bronze statue of Takamori Saigo standing in Ueno Park, Tokyo, also wears Ashinaka Zori. You wear them with your toes and heels touching the floor. They stimulate the arches of your feet and help to restore the function of your whole body. Completely handmade using natural "straw" material. Each one is made with care and sincerity. Please use them as slippers for indoor wear. *Please refrain from bulk purchase requests (due to the Nekopos delivery method). *Please note that we do not offer discounts. ** We will respond sincerely to comments such as questions, but it would be helpful if you could reply to our answers with something (purchase, consideration, unnecessary), etc. Thank you.
