On J-WAVE's "ETHICAL WAVE," a program with the theme "60 minutes of ethical exploration into how we will live three years from now"
We were introduced to tatami loafer slippers.
During the broadcast, the hosts, ethical director Mao Sakaguchi and actress Ellie Toyoda, actually held the products in their hands and shared their impressions. Toyoda commented, "First of all, I was surprised at how soft the leather was, and it looks like it would be very comfortable to wear!", while Sakaguchi commented, "You can tell from the details that it was made by a craftsman," and "The overall quality is very high."
They also shared with us the current state of the tatami industry, saying that "the tatami industry has become very small" and "the number of farmers producing rush grass is decreasing," and expressed their hopes that "it will become more widespread" and "I would like to see many different variations made."
We are extremely pleased to receive such an evaluation from these two people who have seen many ethical and sustainable products.
We will continue to make efforts to let as many people as possible know about it.
