From a well-established store that supported Japanese shoe culture

Since its establishment in Kurume, Fukuoka Prefecture in 1892, Asahi is the shoe brand of Asahi Shoes, a shoe manufacturer that has supported Japanese shoe culture for over 120 years. Asahi Shoes was founded by the founder Tokujiro Ishibashi, the founder of the current company, “Shimaya”, and the business was handed over to two sons. Until then, they felt the inefficiency of the tailoring business, which produces a variety of miscellaneous products such as tabi under shirts and pants, and in 1907 they changed the business of “Shimaya” to “Taboku specialized”. Established its own factory by expanding the company while incorporating the introduction of electric motors and integrated production from cotton.The newly developed patch-type underground socks (with socks and rubber soles) have gained a reputation, and the company grows even larger. In this production, it was unprofitable to purchase and process rubber, so we decided to carry out integrated production from rubber in-house. This has led to the current production of shoes. This Asahi is an independent brand that wants to provide more shoes that can be worn by both men and women such as deck shoes and slip-ons made by Asahi shoes.
