Attraction of Jalan Sliuaya’s U-tip shoes “98490” (1) “Mocca design with a distinctive three-dimensional look.”

The “mocca,” or U-shaped stitching, which is the main feature of the 98490’s design, is one of the first features that should be mentioned. The Jalan Sliuaya U-tip 98490 is made by cutting the leather at an angle and sewing the leather fringe (cross section) together, which requires advanced technology. This process creates a three-dimensional mocca-stitched U-tip.

Appeal of Jalan Sliuaya’s U-tip shoes “98490” (2) “The design of the center seam that exudes a sense of luxury.

The center seam design of the U-tip is also common in bispoke shoes and high-end shoes. This center seam is designed for dress shoes, which use a hardening solvent or glue to mold and maintain the shape of the toe, called a tip tip. Therefore, the solvent may leak out of the stitching holes and stain the upper, and production is done very carefully, which can increase the cost of production. This is a design that is difficult to achieve in dress shoes priced around 30,000 yen, but Jalan Sliuaya is able to pull it off. There are no corners cut just because the price is low, and the shoes are finished with a luxurious look that is not embarrassing no matter where you present them.

Attraction of Jalan Sliuaya’s U-tip shoes “98490” (3) “Loose-fitting last that fits Japanese feet

Jalan Sliuaya focuses on the Asian market, including Japan and Korea, and has adopted a wide-width (foot width and circumference) and small heel cup to fit the foot shape of Asian people. The last used in the 98490 is the ” 16088,” which has a slightly wider ball joint than other lasts and is narrower at the waist and heel than other lasts. The external shuttlecock allows the wearer to adjust the width of the shoe by tightening the laces, making it highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of foot shape users. Although the U-tip has a strong casual impression as a design, the use of a well-defined last gives the impression of a good balance between casual and dressy styles.

Attraction of Jalan Sliuaya’s U-tip shoes “98490” (4) “Functional model with a dynamite sole

Jalan Sliuaya is characterized by the logo stamped on the leather sole, which symbolizes the 9-minute hand-sawn welted manufacturing method, but the 98490 uses a dynamite sole. A leather midsole of about 3 mm is interlocked with it to create a double sole that provides more cushioning. Many people may be attracted to the design of the double sole, which gives volume, but the double sole is also an excellent manufacturing method in terms of functionality. The flat surface of the midsole is better bonded to the rubber sole, which increases the strength of the sole, rather than directly bonding the sole to the exposed cork or the sole that is loose at the seam allowance. Although the sole feels hard at first because of the thickness of the leather, the leather quickly adjusts to the shape of the foot, and the sole naturally sinks into the sole to fit the foot comfortably.

The Dynaite sole is a functional outsole produced by a rubber manufacturer born in England, where the weather can be rough. It is more flexible than the rubbers of other companies and offers higher cushioning. It is known to be used by famous shoe manufacturers around the world, as it boasts a firm grip on the ground even in rainy or humid environments. The thickness of the rubber itself is about 7 to 8 mm, which is comparable in appearance to leather outsoles and works well with dress shoes.
