Checkered pattern slippers | Denim Blue Indigo Japan

Introducing our new classic collection: Check out these awesome indoor shoes that combine Japanese blue lattice with denim in perfect harmony!

We're super excited to present the latest addition to our classic collection. These slippers are truly one-of-a-kind, meticulously crafted with a stylish plaid textile that seamlessly blends the deep blue of traditional Japan with the renowned Hiroshima denim. The result is a captivating range of blues that'll catch your eye!

Deep blue is a big deal in Japan. It's one of the country's most iconic colors, with a whopping 69 traditional shades. Although the exact colors of most of them remain a mystery today, it's fascinating how this Japanese "deep blue" resembles the indigo shade commonly associated with denim in English. In Japan, we call it "Aiiro 藍色," and personally, I'm fascinated by the similarities between indigo and Aiiro. They both represent a beautiful, deeper shade of blue.

"Aiiro 藍色" has a special place in Japanese culture, just like indigo is synonymous with denim, showcasing the deep-rooted traditions and craftsmanship we cherish.

By skillfully mixing these elements, we've created a pair of slippers that perfectly blend the beauty of Japanese blue lattice and denim. They're a harmonious match made in heaven!

We really hope you enjoy them and appreciate the exquisite fusion of styles.
