A gentle touch of color for those who keep moving forward — introducing the brand’s first leather sneakers.

Crafted from gradient-designed leather developed through our experience in material innovation and craftsmanship in developing countries, these sneakers embody both refinement and versatility.

Made with premium smooth leather, the shoes feature an open-laced design, thick laces, and chunky soles to give them a casual, approachable feel while maintaining an elegant look.

Perfect for both on and off-duty occasions, the design adapts effortlessly to any outfit or scene, empowering those who lead active lives. The thick soles also offer a subtle lift, giving you both confidence and style in moments when you want to stand a little taller.

Handcrafted by skilled artisans, the sneakers feature soft, beautifully textured gradient leather.

The design captures the serene beauty of a sky at dawn, with a seamless gradient that flows from the toe to the heel.

Each pair begins as a single-colored leather sneaker, which is then meticulously hand-polished with wax. As the surface is buffed, the color deepens in certain areas, creating a gentle and natural gradation of tones.

Because every pair is individually hand-finished by artisans, each sneaker showcases a unique balance of light and shade—no two are exactly alike.

A thick platform sole that adds both comfort and ease to every step.

The most distinctive feature of these sneakers is the brand’s original sole, boasting a 5 cm platform design.

In developing this model, the top priority was walkability. To achieve this, the sneakers feature a “platform sole” — a single continuous base that runs from toe to heel. The thick sole acts as a cushion, absorbing impact with each step and reducing strain on the feet.

Made from lightweight and highly shock-resistant EVA (a type of synthetic resin), the sole offers excellent durability while keeping the shoes remarkably light. Despite the height of the platform, the sneakers provide effortless comfort and ease for everyday wear.

Attention to Detail for Optimal Comfort

Thick cushioning around the ankle reduces pressure while providing a secure hold, preventing the foot from slipping and supporting stable movement.

The heel is designed slightly higher to create a snug, enveloping fit from above.

In the men’s model, a firmer heel reinforcement is used compared to the women’s version. This not only prevents the sneakers from losing their shape but also ensures a more secure fit by stabilizing both the ankle and heel, delivering enhanced support and comfort.

Color Variations Inspired by Nature

Each color is named after a natural scene evoked by the gradient design.

Blue Night — inspired by the sky at dawn, this shade offers a cool, sophisticated look while adding a stylish accent to any outfit.

Dark Night — reminiscent of the moments just before sunrise, this deep, modern tone enhances a sleek, fashionable look while remaining a versatile neutral that pairs easily with your wardrobe.

Individual Variations

Please note that the color of the leather may vary slightly from pair to pair.
Additionally, since the gradient finish is handcrafted by artisans, the intensity and pattern of the color may differ for each sneaker.

 

MATERIAL

The leather is made from cowhide tanned with a semi-chrome process to create a dense, durable fiber structure. Over time, it softens naturally and molds comfortably to the shape of your foot.

Only a minimal amount of pigment is used for surface finishing, with the leather primarily dyed using transparent dyes (semi-aniline finish).

SIZE

The measurements in cm are approximate. Fit may vary depending on individual preferences.

This product is also available in men’s sizes.

Care Instructions

• This product uses natural leather. To preserve the leather’s natural texture and individuality, surface processing is kept to a minimum. Natural markings such as scars, moles, stains, or veins may be visible.

• Due to the nature of the material, fading or discoloration may occur from friction, moisture, or sweat. Please take extra care when wearing with light-colored clothing.

• The gradient finish is achieved by hand polishing with wax, so each pair has a unique texture and appearance.

• Exposure to water or dryness may alter the gradient color. Regular care with shoe cream is recommended.

• Avoid wearing in rain, as water can cause stains, discoloration, or damage to the leather. If wet, wipe off moisture immediately and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area. Afterwards, apply shoe cream. Storing shoes with dirt or moisture may lead to mold or material deterioration.

• When using shoe care products such as cream, cleaners, or water-repellent sprays, follow the instructions provided with each product. Always test on an inconspicuous area first to prevent unexpected damage such as stains or discoloration.

• Colored shoe cream is not recommended, as it may alter the appearance of the gradient.
