@doekshoes has been making footwear in Kurume, Japan for 140 years. Doek means "woven fabric" in Dutch. "Kasuri" is the textile woven in the Kurume area for 200 years, that is used to make the sneakers. It's famous for its rough and textured feel. The rubber sole is vulcanized or fused together by heating. This allows for durability and extra comfort. Inspired by the lightweight tennis shoes of yesteryear. A timeless classic that will never go out of style. we are happy to welcome back Doek to the store. #doek #kurume #moonstarshoes #goodweaver #vulcanised #ecru #canvas #footwear #sneakers #madeinjapan #surryhills #sydney #bigtroublestore (at Big Trouble Store) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWFSo85v8qh/?utm_medium=tumblr
