This is the Echo, previously produced in Japan by Achilles. It's a slip-on model with a U-tip, making it suitable for both business and everyday wear! The upper is made of soft, water-repellent cowhide, and the sole is a slip-resistant sole with ceramic content. Achilles' urethane material hardly deteriorates. The vulcanized construction also ensures the sole rarely peels off. Although the model is quite old, it is still perfectly usable. Color: Black Stains, tears, odors, etc.: None
