traditional Japanese zori construction
A pair of traditional Japanese zori sandals featuring woven textile uppers with floral motifs in cream and silver threads. The construction shows twill weave base fabric with supplementary weft threads creating raised floral patterns across the foot straps and sole covering. The sandals have the characteristic thong design with a toe post and flat profile typical of zori. Modern plastic soles indicate mid-20th century production, representing the period when traditional Japanese footwear incorporated contemporary materials while maintaining classical aesthetic elements and construction methods.
