A pair of room shoes is an essential part of every Japanese home. This minimalist version is made from Sasawashi fabric, a pill-free fabric that effortlessly absorbs moisture and odors from the skin. The combination of antibacterial Kumazasa fibers and breathable washi keeps these room shoes feeling fresh and feeling comfortable in any season.
Size: Large 6.5 - 9 US
Room Shoe Sizing Tips: Room Shoes are designed for maximum comfort and are very forgiving when it comes to sizing, but it is important that your foot is not larger than the footbed. We provide a US conversion above, but please note that you may fall between sizes.
Care: The shoes feature a soft sole and are intended to only be worn indoors. Please do not wear them outdoors or on cement. Machine wash in a garment bag with similar colors. Do not bleach or tumble dry.
Origin: Osaka, Japan
The Maker
Sasawashi was founded as a reaction to the wastefulness and ephemeral lifespan of the textile industry. Made from absorbent washi (Japanese paper) threads infused with antibacterial Kumazasa plant fibers, this innovative fabric contains natural deodorizing properties that prevent mildew growth and fiber deterioration. From room shoes to scrub towels, every piece in the Sasawashi collection stays true to its founding principles: comfort, longevity, and simplicity.
Materials: Sasawashi fabric, polyester sole
