Sandals" are hot right now.

HOUYHNHNM: It is a bit surprising to see "Crocs" in this Series. Are sandals popular at ATMOS?

Kojima:They are very popular. As sneakers have matured as a culture and tastes have become more diversified and segmented, I think that sandals have also come to be seen in the context of sneaker culture.


HOUYHNHNM's: Easy and Jordan also offer slide-type sandals, and recovery sandals by HOKA and OOFOS are also enthusiastically supported by some.

Kojima: The "Clay" by GROUNDS introduced in the previous issue of this Series, the slide version of the "More Uptempo" and the mule type of the "M2002R" introduced in the previous two issues, and so on.

HOUYHNHNM: He said the sandals are getting interesting.

Kojima: I am sure of it.

HOUYHNHNM's: Because of the season, sandals are easier than sneakers.

Kojima: I think "atmos" has a strong image of sneakers, but we also have a wide selection of sandals that sneaker lovers would want to wear. I encourage you to check them out in our stores.
