Final Few MOONSTAR / UBAL Sneakers – Today Only!

A pair that fits in with your everyday life
The model has its roots in athletic shoes produced in the 1970s. The model is based on athletic shoes produced in the 1970s. The toe cap and the reinforced fabric at the footwear’s opening are elements of athletic shoes, while the wooden pattern used has been reviewed to create a silhouette that is easy to use in everyday life. The silhouette is shaped towards the toe, giving a clean impression without being overbearing. The simple design makes this a pair that fits in with a variety of styling options.

Making method and materials are the main points
shoes can be used comfortably for a long time. The “vulcanisation method” is used. This is a shoe manufacturing method that uses a chemical reaction to change raw rubber into rubber with “elasticity” and “strength” by adding sulphur to it and causing it to react thermally. The

sole is made supple and soft, and the bond between sole and upper is stronger and tougher. In addition, the sole is glued and moulded at the same time, so it does not easily lose its shape.

This manufacturing method requires too much manpower in large facilities, resulting in low productivity and fewer and fewer factories. Shoes made using such a valuable manufacturing method at a factory in Kurume, while also paying careful attention to the dyeing and processing of the fabric and the material of the rubber, are truly a quintessential product.

Strength and fun for years to come
The upper is made of high-quality, durable textile. The vulcanisation process applies heat and pressure, so we select fabrics that are firm enough to withstand it.

A coating called PARAVUL COAT is applied to increase the fabric’s strength, waterproofing performance and the strength of the rubber and the crimp. This process gives the fabric a vintage look and feel, with chalk marks appearing as the garment is used.

Both design and practicality
The rubber toe is made to lay firmly on top of each other. The rubber toe is made to overlap tightly, giving it a classic look as well as a strong surface. The careful stitching that matches the colour of the body also adds a good accent while creating a sense of unity.

The moderately soft insole supports a firm walk and is comfortable to wear.
