Easy to wear due to its excellent stability despite the platform, and its voluminous silhouette makes it easy to match with a wide range of outfits. EVA, used in sneakers, is adopted for the midsole, achieving a lightweight feel and a sneaker-like fit! The arch shape has been slightly raised to fit Japanese foot shapes, increasing the fit and improving fatigue reduction and walkability ◎ The ankle part has a Velcro specification for easy on and off. The webbing tape weave of the upper has increased strength by increasing the density of the weave! Furthermore, by using neoprene material underneath, the fit is greatly improved, significantly reducing stress from the tightening of the tape, and providing a comfortable, enveloping fit. The outsole has been improved with an edgy sole pattern, increasing grip, and a structure that combines cushioning and durability. Great for town use, water scenes, and outdoor activities ◎ 'SHAKA' was a sandal brand from South Africa that existed in the 1990s. They produced high-quality and unique design sandals incorporating African traditional patterns and colors, and quickly gained recognition worldwide, but in 1994, the factory closed due to labor issues at their own factory, and the brand itself disappeared. In 2013, after more than a decade, it was finally revived! From the archives at the time, while faithfully reproducing the SHAKA features such as the sole shape and brightly colored nylon tape, improvements were made to the strength and cushioning of the sole, fit, etc., and the modern, evolved SHAKA was completed.
