★Listing on behalf of my elderly mother★ She retired from work and started making these handmade items to keep her mind sharp. Please understand that these are handmade, so there may be slight imperfections in shape and differences between the left and right. They can be washed in a washing machine using a laundry net. They are very good for foot health, so I hope you'll try them as an introduction to cloth zori (Japanese sandals). I've also set the price low. They may feel tight at first, but they will gradually conform to your feet, so please wear them for a while. The height of the thong can also be adjusted from the back. To keep the selling price down, I will pack them by pressing down on the thong part, but they will return to their shape as soon as you wear them. The knots on the back rope will flatten out as you wear them. You can also adjust the tightness of the thong by untying the knot at the top. Regarding the size, it doesn't matter too much if they are slightly large or small, as they will conform to your feet with wear. She had a lot of stock that her family couldn't wear, so she's listing them to help cover the cost of materials. She mainly uses old clothes that are no longer worn to make them. There is one cat at her home where she makes them. There are no smokers. There are no pets or smokers in my home either. I will check for odors and hair before shipping, but if you are concerned, please refrain from purchasing. These are not the same quality as those sold in stores, so please refrain from purchasing if you are a perfectionist. I ask for your understanding that these are amateur creations. I hope we have a good connection... #lyric1215's cloth zori
