With the Sal 1 w/ Crepe Sole, Yuketen has deconstructed the timeless clog style, reducing it to its rudiments and fundamental beauty. Yuketen’s Sal 1 w/ Crepe Sole is a simple work of craftsmanship with elevated components befitting of the nature of handcrafted leather sandal.
Each sandal is entirely hand-cut and hand-constructed from select cuts of softly tanned distressed hairy cow suede from Opera leather from Tuscany, Italy who have been specialized in making suede and flesh-out leather since the 70s. Each of the suede that are used on the Sal 1 w/ Crepe Sole is hand-selected and hand-lasted one by one to make sure that only a good part of the skin is used and to make use of the material. The full leather lining details offers a better comfort and durability.
The three-dimensional footbed constructed with the toe bar, arch support and heel cup increases fitting in the arch and heel as well as lessen foot fatigue, and helps the weight to be distributed more evenly across the foot and accommodate the distinct shape of the wearer. Two layers of the jute and plantation crepe unit sole provides superior shock absorption and an incredibly soft and slip-resistant tread.
Yuketen’s Sal 1 w/ Crepe Sole is the recommended selection for truly comfortable footwear when wearing in sub-tropical climates among local neighborhoods, seaside communities or walkabouts.
WARNING: It is important to avoid contact with any petroleum based products as this may cause the natural crepe outsole to dissolve.
