Overview

About the Tanuki Kibo - EU

The Tanuki models are the result of a happy coincidence and a truly warm collaboration between Wildling and Mr. Itioi. Japanese Washi paper, with its rich 1000-year tradition, was expertly combined with minimalist footwear. The fibers derived from the Abaca plant are specially processed to create this unique and durable material. These shoes offer a blend of heritage and modern barefoot design.
