Tanaka Universal is a Japanese shoe brand founded in 1942. They restore the machines, shoe molds, soles, cutting knives, etc. that were left behind in shoe factories in Eastern Europe that produced high-quality military training shoes as a military industry during the war, and reproduce them using the manufacturing methods of the time. They have reproduced a number of shoes, including the world's first reproduction of the German Trainer, a German military training shoe that was discontinued in 1994, using the wooden lasts, soles, materials, and machines of the time and the traditional manufacturing methods. They carefully inherit the passion for shoemaking of craftsmen who have inherited traditional techniques, and make shoes that combine the essence of history and culture with modern fashion and mode.
This authentic pair of shoes has been produced using faithfully reproduced lasts and manufacturing methods from that time, making it as close to the original as possible.
This all-leather model has the same solid color even on the transition areas which are usually finished in suede.
The upper is made of supple calf leather with a grained texture.
Dirt can be easily wiped off and the shoes are soft to wear.
