Appeal of THE ONITSUKA’s leather shoes (2) “The fine sole design centered on “αGEL Foam” realizes sneaker-like lightness and comfort!
The “Alpha Gel Foam” is an essential part of THE ONITSUKA’s dress shoes. This is installed in the heel of the sole to increase shock-absorbing properties and provide a light and comfortable fit, as if wearing sneakers. The inner sole is designed around the “αGEL Foam” and combines foam materials of different hardness to maintain cushioning while reducing arch sinkage and heel wobble. The outer sole is made of a rubber sponge that combines durability and cushioning in pursuit of comfort.
