THE IDEA WAS BORN IN JAPAN – A COUNTRY WHERE SANDALS ARE FAR MORE THAN JUST SHOES. THEY’RE A CENTURIES-OLD TRADITION. AN INEXTRICABLE PART OF A KIMONO OUTFIT. THE FOOTGEAR OF BUDDHIST MONKS ON THEIR SPIRITUAL JOURNEYS. AND A SYMBOL OF FREEDOM TO GO WHEREVER YOU LIKE.
BUT COME NOVEMBER, THE TEMPERATURE IN TOKYO OFTEN FALLS BELOW 10°C AND CHILLY DAYS CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE WINTER. THE OUTSIDE AND THE INSIDE BECOME TWO SEPARATE WORLDS: OF FREEZING COLD AND PLEASANT WARMTH.
BETWEEN THOSE TWO WORLDS, SUBU IS THE BRIDGE. OFFERING A WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF FUNCTIONALITY, THEY LEAVE YOU SURPRISED THAT OUTDOOR SHOES COULD EVER FEEL SO SOFT. THEIR MODERN, STREAMLINED DESIGN BLENDS WELL WITH ANY OUTFIT. AND IN A MATTER OF SECONDS, SUBU BRING THE OUTSIDE WORLD AT YOUR FINGERTIPS – EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER.
IMAGINE A MIDNIGHT STROLL AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD. A LAIDBACK TRIP INTO THE NEARBY FOREST. A BONFIRE ON A CAMPSITE.
