Theyre so versatile with a dash of retro style.

The Japan S shoe is based on a 1981 Asics style originally designed for the basketball court.

At less than 11 ounces, theyre also pretty lightweight, compact, and packable.
Through all of this wear and tear, my pair of Japan S shoes look shockingly good.
Very comfortable and stylish.

These sneakers fit perfectly and are comfortable.
I live in NYC and walk around A LOT.
I received many compliments wearing these.

They are also easy to clean if they get a little scuffed from hours of walking.
I wont hesitate to repurchase the Japan S and might even try a spicier color next time.

The chunky sole adds a bit of style and offers more cushion, too.
They have a suede and synthetic upper in a few demure colorways and go for just $65.
Absolutely the prettiest classic sneaker to dress up sweats and casual outfits!

So comfortable Im buying a backup [pair]!
Bonus: customers say the synthetic upper is easy to clean back to bright white.
