Soft and fluffy sandals that can be worn in winter

In your daily life in winter, do you ever have trouble choosing footwear for a quick outing? Walking around the neighborhood, shopping, taking out the trash every day, tending to the garden, etc. It's too cold to wear sandals or sneakers barefoot, but it's also a hassle to choose shoes after putting on socks. That's why we recommend winter sandals that are quick to put on and warm. With these, you can go out in the cold season more comfortably.

These winter sandals are a collaboration item between NANGA, a sleeping bag and down manufacturer known to mountaineers around the world, and SUBU, which makes autumn and winter sandals that can be worn comfortably both indoors and outdoors. NANGA, which was founded as a futon shop, makes winter sandals that can be used as warm indoor shoes instead of slippers, so they are recommended for people who always wear socks to keep out the cold but want a more relaxed feel.

Feeling cozy

The upper is made of NANGA's original HINOC material. It is flame-retardant, so it is difficult to burn sparks from a bonfire, and is a durable fabric that is relatively resistant to water and dirt, which are considered weak points of flame-retardant materials, so it is safe to use for outdoor activities such as camping.

The inside is made of a fleece fabric with excellent heat retention, so you can feel the warmth of down. The soft texture gently wraps your feet, and the combination with the four-layer insole creates a fluffy cushioning that you will feel every time you walk, which you will likely become addicted to.

Made of cotton-like NANGA's HINOC fabric, these winter sandals designed by SUBU, who has the motto of "pursuing everyday items as fashion," are stylish even when used for town use. This KHAKI has a cute combination of the khaki upper and the brown fleece part, making it the perfect color for autumn and winter. They are great as sandals to comfortably get through cold days, as they warm your feet while relaxing, so they are also recommended as seasonal gifts or Christmas gifts.

Domestic production to maintain quality

While many of our competitors are shifting production overseas, NANGA continues to produce domestically. The reason is to maintain quality. Expensive down products often have fake origins and countries of manufacture, making it difficult for anyone other than the producer to verify their quality. This is a unique manufacturing background for down. We carry out all the work from washing the down to sewing and inspection by hand, and we produce domestically because we have a strong desire to deliver it to our users with confidence.

Another point that is indispensable when talking about NANGA is the Japanese craftsmen. Our sewing techniques are unique, and we have gathered know-how to meet a wide range of demands, from mountaineers who put their lives at risk to weekend hikers. Japanese craftsmen are skilled in detailed work, and we pursue not only a beautiful finish, but also high durability and comfort.

Continuing the challenge to overcome difficulties on the high peaks of the Himalayas

NANGA was founded in 1941 as Yokota Sewing, which manufactured kotatsu futons and futon mattresses. In the 1960s, the company changed its name to NANGA in order to continue manufacturing in Japan, and became known not only in Japan but also among mountaineers around the world as a manufacturer of sleeping bags and down using high-quality down. NANGA is the name of Nanga Parpat, the ninth highest mountain in the world, located in the Himalayas, with an altitude of 8,125m. It is known for being very difficult to climb and having many people lost in the mountains, but the reason behind using the mountain's name as the brand name is the strong will to continue the challenge to overcome the most difficult conditions.

The philosophy of manufacturing is honesty, simplicity, and strength. They are thoroughly particular about the safety and quality of the feathers, and even offer a lifetime guarantee on their sleeping bags. We hope that the down jackets and sleeping bags we make will give everyone who uses them a sense of safety, security, and comfort.
