MBT buntaro

Hello everyone.

keylime Tokyo is open from today, Thursday, this week.



The rainy season started last week, and although we were bracing ourselves for continuous rain, it didn't turn out that way, and on sunny days, the temperature is over 30 degrees Celsius, making it hard to walk outside during the day.

At keylime Tokyo, we basically offer leather shoes, but did you know that we also offer sandals?

These MBT buntaro collaboration sandals. The thick sole is impressive, and the sandals are easy to match with denim, which is popular at keylime Tokyo, and wide, airy pants and shorts, which you can wear at this time of year.

The straps are modest in relation to the volume of the sole, and the balance is also exquisite.



The color is also only black, so you don't have to spend time worrying about what to wear with your outfit.

The MBT buntaro sandal has more functional features than its design.

First of all, the sole is equipped with the "MBT Sensor" patented by the Swiss brand MBT. While walking on hard, flat asphalt, the sensor gives your feet the sensation of walking on uneven ground, activating foot muscles that are not normally used, and assisting in correcting posture.

It is a mysterious technology that makes this concretized city into the earth only in the sense of walking, whether it has evolved or degenerated. It is said that this technology was inspired by the bare feet and gait of the Maasai tribe, who have good posture.



The brand name MBT is an acronym for Masai Barefoot Technology.

Please take a look at the video about MBT soles from the official MBT handler. They carefully teach us everything from the features of the sole to how to walk. And it is quite surreal.

ここまで読むと姿勢を矯正してくれるかもしれないけど、履き心地が悪くなっては元も子もないのでは？

とお思いの方も多いでしょう。

The buntaro foam rubber compensates for this.

The thick buntaro original rubber "AIR RUBBER""Castella"" laid on the footbed uses high cushioning to absorb the impact from asphalt and relieve the burden on the feet.

It is a highly functional material with excellent water resistance and weather resistance, and can withstand tough use.

It also has an antibacterial effect, which is a nice feature to have in sandals, and it is also nice to know that "odor" is taken into consideration.

The curved, thick, sensorized sole takes some getting used to.

If you are interested, we will guide you to try them on, so please check them out in our store.

Of course, you can also purchase from our online store. Size is in EU.

I, Kubo, a staff member, wear sneakers 27.5cm, Japanese leather shoes 26.5cm, imported leather shoes UK8 and MBT buntaro sandals 42.

We do not have seasonal sales at keylime Tokyo, so you can enjoy shopping at your leisure.



The store will be open until Monday, so please feel free to visit us.

We look forward to seeing you at our store.
