YAMATO KOBO FLIP FLOPS OVAL UNISEX CORK SETTA BROWN STRIPES US SIZE 7 WOMEN'S & 5.5 MENS NEW Sizes ● Traditionally, setta are worn with your heel slightly sticking out (left) ● Now-a-days people often choose to wearn them as Western footwear (right). ● A size smaller than your actual foot size is recommended for the traditional style. ● Bigger sizes should be avoided when you are not used to wearing setta - your toes are supporting the weight of the sole and a larger setta would mean more burden on your toes, making it harder to walk. If you do choose a larger model, avoid leather and go for a light-weight material. IMPORTANT: The setta are handmade and use delicate materials. The bottom of setta with leather may show "uneven color, stains", "rubbing marks and scratches", "small irregularities", etc. due to rubbing in the manufacturing process, but please note that it is not defective. For cotton thongs, the inner cotton may show. Please note that all Yamato Kobo footwear is handmade. YAMATO KOBO is a maker of Japanese Setta footwear, since 1957. They are based in Nara city - the center of Setta production in Japan. Their sandals are used by many high class Japanese hotels and inns. Different from traditional setta, the YAMATO setta differentiate between the right and left foot by placing the thong at the most appropriate place, which makes them more comfortable to wear.
