General Scale Maison MIHARA YASUHIROAuthorized Store

Welcome to the product listing page for General Scale Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO. This new sneaker collection, initiated in 2021 by designer Yasuhiro Mihara, traces its roots back to 2018 in Italy, where Mihara was inspired by vintage combat boots at a military shop. Unable to wear these vintage shoes due to age-related deterioration, he aimed to create 'wearable vintage shoes.' This led to the creation of new soles that faithfully replicate the worn heels and decayed rubber of actual vintage footwear.

It is impossible to wear vintage shoes because of the deterioration of the components, but he wanted to make vintage shoes that can be worn, so he created a "new" sole based on actual vintage shoes, faithfully reproducing the worn out look of the heel and the rotten rubber.

Moreover, deeply committed to 'sustainability,' Mihara has used entirely biodegradable materials for everything from the soles to the uppers and sewing threads, ensuring the sneakers are crafted with environmental consciousness. All materials used in the collection are meticulously selected from eco-friendly companies worldwide.

The main focus of this collection is to 'visualize' where, how, and from what materials the shoes are made, allowing consumers to wear them with confidence and peace of mind. It represents a challenge to create footwear that consumers can trust. This collection is intended to encourage everyone to think about 'the future of our Earth.
