“You place an order and” re-create culture!

At one time certainly it existed even in Japan, the culture that you place an order the shoes.Is piled up, inundation of the ready-made shoes and spreading of the short circuit thought, “quality item” = “prominent brand item” and furthermore the retirement etc with aging of the competent craftsman, that regrettable already is the light before the wind.

But when here several years, the air hole will be opened to the block circumstance, the persevering of the shoes craftsman of the young man jiwajiwa it has started being conspicuous is fact.This time, to visit the studio of SAION (rhinoceros on) which Naoto existence Yokoyama who can be called the ace of such a young man leads, searching the latent energy of the new order shoes culture of Japan, you think as like then.

The temporary sewing of 2 times is compromise, proof!

SAION, the brand name which is named from sound of the word, “saturation sound”.mr. yokoyama is what seems familiar to bass guitar since he was a student, he
in shoe making in the music playing, the bottom line is based, exactly the same
called off. ie in shoemaking, based on how that fit the foot= wooden mold on whether or not make the, a significant portion of the quality of shoes is not to determine that would.

that is whySAIONin the old spoke of the, tuning of the wooden=there is no intent to adjust, it the fitting2time that do, we also present in the fabrication steps tailored shoes in the studio of no other quite fumikire both inside and outside. looking at the concrete steps from order to completion, is something like the following.

for example, in a bespoke suit is a fitting1instead of once2there is also time to do taylor, the fabric is exactly the same thing in principle and when basting and finished goods, this means that it is only tailor 1wearing is. butSAIONbespoke is in the, shoes that trial1 and shoes that trial2 shoes of the final version leather upper and sole are all different. this means that the shoes1real leg to be completed 3foot so you are prepared, this is made for the hand is like a daunting task.

the way shoes that trial2 in, upper shoes of the final version using almost the same quality french calf, sewing machine only put out so-called underplated tailoring nine minutes specification. so, if nothing else it common sense to mose, it is a great quality shoes no longer sufficient. stillSAIONin, shoes of the final version for up to1is not only a step.

been completed thus took about half a year from the orderSAIONshoes of the, a slightly different style of the one and only italian with english style also with. dubbo is not felt with a completely unnecessary as you can see, boasts a very stoic silhouette. not mean that you have to say or combined into small size, when you see the way is obvious attack of shank, some kind of momentum and force, pomp and just make me feel happy that it is also more than enough.

and even shoe tree to wear shoes is indispensable for many years to come, shoes of the final version has been prepared from scratch to fit the wooden form of comes with the. there are over face value is certainly in the shoes of a hefty price, far exceed the quality and it, it has been a passion of mr. yokoyama served, there is no doubt.

start-made patterns!

high-spirited than other maisonSAIONbespoke charm of york was found, not enough little things but indeed precede…… how many will come and say. but any worry! everyone for such, while incorporating plenty of the elements of a bespoke, the price also reduces eye pattern made of, 2007years12starts from mon.

only in a tight, high-dimensionalSAIONlittle shoes close to to get a taste, the pattern has been made to simplify the fabrication process as follows:.

1. there are three kinds of shape from toe pointed almond square and round, customers choose the desired documents.
2. was measured on the feet of customer, asked to put feet on the sample was prepared by wooden shoes of each size, choose the optimal size.
3. from the style of shoes that are available in several ten, customers choose the desired documents.
4. 1.~3.to create a shoe based on the.
5. the finished product, delivered to the customer.

or develop from scratch a wooden mold to suit the customer’s foot, shoes trial does not make. is, a wooden mold to prepare in advance why hate, to accommodate the most people about the width of some prime meat broth, that a high degree of completion mr. yokoyama was sticking to. also, while they decided to basic styles of shoes, or stitching just to replace the burogingu for example, medallion of the toe, such as unchecking, arrangement is possible slightly.

on the other hand, when made into shoes and actually used in the upper kakushitsu how to hand over , furthermore, it comes with original shoe tree right-sized shoes, does not change at all with any bespoke. easy to imagine the finished product with a point already at the time of the order, respects and takes less half months before and after delivery because there is no one about the wooden mold fabrication and fitting, pattern has won made, rather than bespoke. since we are of course offered at the price than the latter, SAIONshoes for the first time to experience, those who think first i would like to enjoy the style of mr. yokoyama, might be better from here was started?

i felt particularly strongly this time i will interview, SAIONshoes that are attractive kamoshidasu, or not it has affected the atmosphere of a good studio? was that. 3-4there is a narrow space and become immediately packed once people, each person with a dense minute to maintaining our communication that, that can work in a constructive manner that anyone facing the same direction , i was impressed by such. in fact during the interview, consultation with respect to fine shoes during fabrication was done actively to the axis mr. yokoyama.

and manufacturer of bespoke shoes and the united kingdom have traditionally outsourced to full-time worker out process is different sewing and underplated, SAIONwe are in the studio this entire process from preparation to completion of wooden shoes in. mr. yokoyama, presided over the preparation, but he has been involved mainly wooden, precise instructions is not immediately able to place even for post-processing if this mechanism, that the work proceeds in a disorderly fashion in the self-righteousness of the artisan, do not have. even when i have an idea of creating new knowledge and also shoes, or it can be verified immediately, be shared with other artisans can be, the technical capabilities of all artisans as a result of the entire studio comprehensively, and with a sense of speed increase leads to.

so, only this teamwork japanese manufacturing it is a pattern typical of victory! good transport links and also compliment in downtown tokyo can not be said, in place were forced to use the local bus from the station until the day of interview also, a small studio. from there a demo, could not be so far from japan’s tailored shoes cause, large no-compromise swell is, i have certainly bubbling up now!
