Toshinosuke Takegahara, who has also worked as a shoe designer for Foot the Coacher and Beautiful Shoes, is directing a new Japanese brand called "Paco™" (PPACO™).
The most significant feature of this internationally patented, proprietary function is that it is a revolutionary idea that "if placed upside down, the inside will not get dirty even outdoors," and it is attracting attention as a game-changer in the shoe market.
The brand and WTAPS, which has been at the forefront of the global fashion scene beyond Japan, have teamed up to create a new line of products that turn the conventional wisdom on its head. What kind of gems that "turn common sense upside down" are woven together by these two brands? Let's check it out.
LUX-1 ¥14,300
The base was the iconic "Lux-1," which was the first model of "Paco™.
The sandals are made of High-PerFORM®, a medium resilient material containing natural latex (sap extracted from rubber trees), which provides exceptional comfort even during long walks. Once you try these sandals, you will be addicted to their soft and comfortable feel that will overturn the concept of sandals.
Another thing to note is the dot-patterned outsole, which enhances grip. Traditionally, the outsole is the same color as the upper, but when it is passed through the "Double Taps" filter....
. They have been revamped in a marble color that is reminiscent of skateboarding wheels. The combination with the deep jet black upper is exquisite, and although it does not make a strong statement, if you see these sandals on the street, you will be compelled to follow them with your eyes. It's a good idea to have a pair of sandals like that.
Sizes range from US 7 (25.0 cm) to US 10 (28.0 cm). They are already on sale at the Paco™ online store, so if you are interested, be sure to check it out right away.
