We are all about handmade and Moonstar has been handcrafting shoes in Kurume, a Japanese city known for its leading work in the rubber manufacturing industry, since 1873.
The hallmark of Moonstar is vulcanizing, or ka-ryu in Japanese; a process performed by only a select handful of shoe manufacturers around the world. In the ka-ryu process, each shoe is fired in a kiln which causes the sulfur mixed inside the raw rubber to chemically react, returning the rubber to its natural elasticity and creating a soft, flexible, and durable upper feature and sole.
The Gym Classic is MOONSTAR’s take on a remodelled gym shoe from the 1960’s, light and refined whilst still being strong, robust and durable.
