I’ve had the good fortune to have hand made shoes before, and watched their construction in stages by a small group of craftsman. Mr. yosui has mastered every stage, the hand cutting precision and attention to detail is remarkable. The Japanese culture again shows its roots in high skill, painstaking, workmanship.

[@trinomial-nomenclature]

I would love to have shoes made for me. I have wide feet and it isn't always easy to find wide shoes, therefore my feet push against the sides and cause pain. I always imagined shoes that are tailored to your feet would feel amazing and you wouldn't get sore, tired feet at the end of the day.

[@mattcastellanos2178]

@@trinomial-nomenclature Right, I was told that part of his customer base is people with special orthopedic needs that just can’t find comfort even with orthopedic shoes. Interestingly in my case, I had a couple pair made from the same LAST which he built-up from a 2D pattern of my foot, one pair fit near perfect but the other was slightly snug and needed adjustments after construction. Love both, but he pointed to the distinct leather choices I made for each as a possible reason.
