The Evolution of Jikatabi

This model represents the next generation of traditional Japanese jikatabi.
Designed with a breathable mesh upper, it delivers a secure fit while remaining exceptionally lightweight. Preserving the signature jikatabi sensation of feeling connected to the ground, the updated mid-cut design supports natural movement and confident footing.

Dual-Layer Cushioning for Natural Movement

Designed to preserve the ground feel that defines traditional jikatabi, the dual-layer cushioning system helps absorb impact without sacrificing responsiveness.

Encouraging Natural Foot Movement

The split-toe design allows the big toe to move more freely and naturally than in conventional footwear.

Built on Over a Century of Tabi Craftsmanship

Our tabi shoes are built on a last refined through more than 100 years of traditional tabi making.
Designed specifically for the unique shape and function of tabi footwear, this carefully developed last helps provide lasting comfort and a natural fit. It reflects generations of craftsmanship and the knowledge gained from creating footwear inspired by Japan's long tabi tradition.

Easy Care

These shoes can be gently hand washed when needed. For best results, we recommend using a mild detergent.

Finding Your Ideal Fit

For the best wearing experience, we recommend choosing a size that leaves approximately 0.5 to 1.0 cm (0.2 to 0.4 inches) of space in front of the toes.
