Hello, Hama-san -

Thank you for the information on "eight-sole sandals". When I see the real thing, I quite agree to the expression "to protect their feet". Although others contributed information that they saw factory people in the sandals, no information that they themselves wore the sandals has been contributed.

The above information is based on a story told by my grandfather a carpenter, and for him, being posted by me (as my grandfather doesn't use personal computers). Questions, if any, will be forwarded to him.
The sandals seem to have been used not only before the war but also even after 32nd - 33rd years of Showa (1957 - 1958) in factories. What I'd like to know now is the time when use of them was started. If your grandfather knows anything about that point, I'll be glad to hear from you. Thank you for your posting.

Karei
