Uniqueness with the vulcanized method

PRAS is based on the philosophy of “JAPANISM PRODUCT”, which is not only about the appearance of the product, but also to appeal to the Japanese aspects of the interior. We believe that the inner Japanese style is the quality of manufacturing that Japanese people have long been aware of, such as “facing with materials seriously” and “manufacturing delicate and honest”, and disseminating this quality both domestically and internationally. However, the brand started with the idea that Japan would need to gain sympathy by actually wearing the product.

Also, instead of a temporary trend, we want to create a universal product that will continue for the next 10 years and beyond, so pay attention to simple sneakers that suit any outfit, and a Japanese style called vulcanized PRAS sneakers were announced with a manufacturing method added.

The vulcanized manufacturing method used in PRAS sneakers is a method of bonding the sneaker body and the sole together. Put uncured rubber that has not yet hardened between the sneaker body and the sole, put it in a special kettle and add sulfur and vulcanizing agent while applying high temperature pressure. In this "vulcanization" process, the sole and upper (shoe body) are bonded together, and parts of different materials such as the canvas body and rubber sole can be integrated.

The sneaker rubber made over a long period of time using the vulcanized method will return to its proper shape even when stretched, and will have the original property of being bounced and supple. As a result, the foot fits very well, kicks out smoothly, and the bottom is hard to peel off. In addition, rubber tape is wound around the boundary between the sneaker body and the rubber bottom to make it durable against lateral movement, so it can be used as a sneaker that can be worn for a long time with a pair of shoes. Will do it.
