You will find three types of sneakers at Asahi:
First of all, the Deck Shoe , a cotton canvas sneaker with a vulcanized sole. There are Deck Shoes with Ventile cotton canvas, which resists rain. The style is very close to Van's sneakers.
Then, the Belted Low , in leather (smooth or suede), always with a vulcanized sole, is characterized by a thin strip of contrasting fabric that goes around the shoe. This detail helps differentiate this model from all the sleek leather sneakers that exist on the market.
Finally, you will find the Trainer , which as its name suggests, has a shape closer to a New Balance type runner. Their difference lies in the play of contrast between a part in airy mesh, very sportswear, and another in suede leather, with a more urban appearance.
All Asahi brand products are made in Japan in a workshop renowned for sole vulcanization work. The products are of very good quality.
However, we were not able to see the leathers used by the brand.
