Sandals^HEP / DRV Driving Sandals

HEP
Founded in 1952 in Nara Prefecture, a hub for footwear production, HEP continues to update the traditional Japanese household sandals, ensuring they remain relevant for future generations.

Comfortable for Extended Wear
The upper is made from soft artificial leather for a comfortable fit. Its moderate sheen enhances any outfit with an elegant touch.

In the midsection, lightweight and cushioned EVA material is used, along with a moisture-wicking, breathable, antibacterial, and deodorizing insole, ensuring comfort even when worn barefoot.

The sole is made from durable material resistant to abrasion, designed to maintain high strength and prevent excessive wear. Its gentle slope from heel to toe supports comfortable walking.

Detailed Design for Ease of Use
The upper combines breathability with a sleek appearance. Its simple and versatile design is suitable for wearing with or without socks.

Due to changes in the design of the outsole edge, there may be two different specifications depending on the timing of your order.
*Please note that there will be no changes in width or length.

Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate specific preferences when placing an order.

Pay attention to the heel part of the sole. The diagonal cut here was originally designed to facilitate accelerator pedal operation for drivers.

This design detail preserves the functional beauty conceived in the past, adding a distinctive touch typical of the brand.

The back band features a 2-way design that can be adjusted front and back, enhancing stability when worn upright and allowing for easy slip-on when folded forward. Enjoy two different looks according to your preference.

A Simple Style that Matches Any Outfit
Easy-to-wear driving sandals with a flat, comfortable tread. Ideal for summer, whether worn barefoot or with patterned socks peeking through the upper gaps, allowing you to feel the breeze from toe to head.
