Attention
Due to the manufacturing process, PU insoles may contain small air bubbles or scratches, but we have confirmed that this does not affect their use.
During inspection, we reject any shoes with severe scratches or stains, but we will sell any shoes with bubbles in the sole, small scratches, black or white spots, slight scuffs or stains as good products.
Thank you for your understanding.


People-friendly

More than 90% of the shoes you see every day are manufactured using adhesives.
Most of the adhesives used are organic solvent types.
When it sticks, it evaporates and releases toxic vapors.
That's why ventilation equipment is essential in shoe factories.
But you can't completely vent it.
Project Loper was started from the desire to design a manufacturing system that would be safer for the working conditions and health of those involved in shoe manufacturing.
Environmentally friendly

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) contained in solvent-based adhesives, which are widely used in shoe manufacturing, are subject to regulation as air pollutants .
Loper uses no adhesive to join the upper and sole, helping to keep the atmosphere clean.
The outsole does not contain chlorine and does not produce dioxins when incinerated.
Stimulate creativity

With Loper, anyone can have fun making shoes.
If the soles wear out, you can replace them yourself, and you can even customize them to your liking.
When you live using things you've made yourself, or wear things that you know who made them, you can develop a strong attachment to them.
This is a project where everyone works together to create the richness that can be discovered through making and using things.

What you make
Please try on the samples and then decide.
Each instructor has a different selection of materials.

★★ You can make shoes that incorporate the basics of LOPER. We recommend beginners start here.
★★★ Many parts and possibilities mean more work. If you're used to crafting, you'll have no problem making this.

More than 90% of the shoes you see every day are manufactured using adhesives.
Many of the adhesives used are solvent-based.
They volatilize as they bond, producing toxic fumes.
That's why shoe factories require ventilation equipment.
However, complete exhaust is not possible.
Normally, shoemaking requires expensive equipment and skilled techniques.
We aim to create high-quality products that incorporate local characteristics and use local materials, without mass production.
By creating a system where people can purchase these products from trusted sources, we aim to build a cycle where both users and makers can become prosperous and happy.
