【Waterproof】From the water's edge to rainy days! The capability of slip-resistant sole boots that have passed the “24-hour water immersion test”
Having a pair of shoes that eliminates the worry of choosing shoes on rainy days or for holidays spent at the water's edge significantly expands your range of activities. Born from Japanese manufacturing, the "USETSU GRIPPY × Vibram" is recommended for its waterproof performance that has passed the 24-hour water immersion test and the high grip provided by the Vibram sole.
The technology for making wetsuits brought to your feet
"USETSU GRIPPY × Vibram" is a waterproof shoe that applies technology developed in wetsuit manufacturing. It uses domestically produced neoprene with a thickness of 5mm for the upper, and special adhesive and sewing techniques to suppress water ingress from the seams.
According to the manufacturer's tests, they were able to confirm the performance to prevent water from entering internally in a 24-hour immersion test. This seems reliable even during sudden rain or water-related leisure activities!

Neoprene is soft and elastic, providing a gentle touch to the feet while also offering thermal insulation. It seems like it will be useful in scenes spent by the water, such as autumn and winter camping or stream walking.
Increase your sense of security even on rainy days with Vibram soles
On days when your feet get wet, not only waterproofing but also grip strength is essential. This model features the Vibram “#884C BRISTOL” sole, which is used in hiking boots and similar footwear. It is designed to grip the ground securely even on wet surfaces, making it versatile for everything from city walks on rainy days to outdoor activities.
The appearance is close to that of simple sneakers, with a design that pairs well with casual wear. Its finish does not convey the clumsiness often associated with waterproof shoes, so you can easily wear them without worrying about the weather.
