Good evening, Karei-san -
The Yomiuri Shimbun morning edition of June 11 reported on this room. I would like to comment on eight-sole sandals mentioned in the report. Many comments have been posted already, but the sandals I saw were mainly those worn by workers in factories. It was the second decade of Showa Era when safety shoes or the like were not available. Workers slipped on the sandals, wearing dark blue working tabi socks.
Since no other sandal-like footwear was available then, they should have been useful as their wood backing withstood stepping on scrapes from lathes and other metal chips scattered in factories. I often saw at lunch-break factory people in eight-sole sandals trooping for the lunch.
