Ballet style sneaker with triangular elastic at the instep for comfort, this shoe is a collaboration between A&S and MOONSTAR. MOONSTAR is a Japanese brand based in Kurume City, Fukuoka – a town that has flourished as a center of the rubber industry for over 150 years. The shoes created in this collaboration are based on standard models from MOONSTAR’s FINE VULCANIZED series and feature A&S’s original Voile cotton duck peach washer fabric. Woven from thick cotton double yarn, the duck cloth is finished with a lightly brushed surface and a washer treatment, giving it a soft feel and a gently faded look.

Made in Japan.
