Yu Gengs Wildling Tanuki Barfußschuhe Herren Schwarz | Deutschland-XSWLRU748 – Barfußschuhe

Ürün Bilgileri

The Tanuki models came to life thanks to a unique coincidence and a heartfelt collaboration.

Japanese washi paper has a tradition of more than a 1000 years, with a variety of uses. But it was only after Mr. Itioi and Wildling crossed paths that this magical fabric found its way into minimal footwear.

Fibers from the Abaca plant are woven together using a special technique making the Tanuki model breathable and water permeable.

The weave, together with the paper-textile properties, makes it the ideal shoe for warm conditions.

At only 2 to 5.3 ounces it’s one of the lightest shoes in the world – giving an unprecedented feeling of freedom.

The permeable paper upper with its super quick drying qualities makes the Tanuki ideal for water adventures – just remove the hempling insoles. Or simply replace them with washi insoles (available separately).
