MOONSTAR

Moonstar, an iconic brand founded in 1873, is based in Kurume, western Japan.
They use traditional techniques to craft durable, comfortable footwear.
They weave 100% cotton canvas for three months using the Kurume Kasuri method.
Skilled artisans then hand-assemble each shoe with care.
They coat the shoes in vulcanized rubber using a time-honored process.
Finally, they fire the shoes in an oven to seal the finish.
This rare method strengthens the materials and adds flexibility.
Each pair gains a unique look and resists all weather conditions.
