mizutori original《hitete 6.5》
The "hitete" series is popular for being easy to walk in and making your feet look beautiful.
With a heel height of approximately 6.5cm, it's the most popular series due to its comfortable fit that doesn't feel like a high heel even for those who are not accustomed to them, and its sandal-like silhouette that easily matches Western clothing.
The shape of the toe part, in particular, makes it easy to grip the thong.

Contains cushioning material, making it soft on the foot. Designed to prevent thong chafing.
Point 3: Structure of the thong
Contains cushioning material, making it soft on the foot. Its wide width gently envelops the foot. It is molded to fit the average Japanese foot shape.
Point 4: Shape of the wooden base (arch)
The arched shape of the arch provides a comfortable fit.
Point 5: Wooden base material
Excellent durability with rich wood grain patterns that develop more character with each step. Made from mahogany and sapele.

This is a guide on how to care for geta and sandals.
1. Caring for the Wooden Base and Top Plate
Wiping:
Wipe away dirt with a soft cloth lightly dampened with lukewarm water.
Detergent:
In some cases, you may wipe the surface with a diluted neutral detergent.
2. Care for the Strap
Cleaning Method:
Remove dirt with a soft brush (like a toothbrush), then wipe with a soft cloth lightly dampened with lukewarm water.
Note:
Depending on the fabric, dye may bleed, so please test on an inconspicuous area first.
Please note that soaking the strap in water will cause it to harden.
Prevention:
We recommend lightly applying a waterproof spray before use. When doing so, be careful not to spray the wooden base.
3. Rubber Sole Maintenance
When to Replace:
To prolong the life of your geta, we recommend replacing the rubber soles frequently before the wooden base wears down.
Repairs:
You can have them replaced at a local shoe repair shop. If the wear extends past the rubber and reaches the wooden base, please consult the retailer.
4. Repairing Chipped Paint
For Black:
You can touch up the area with black nail polish or a black marker to make it less noticeable.
For Dark Brown:
You can touch up the area with a wood-staining pen. Please choose a color similar to the base.
Other:
Please contact us if the chipped area is large.
5. Care for Genuine Leather Uppers
Follow the same care instructions as for general leather shoes.
Removing Dirt:
Remove dirt with a soft brush (like a toothbrush), then wipe with a soft cloth dampened with shoe cleaner.
Moisturizing and Polishing:
Apply shoe cream to a soft cloth, work it in, then brush and polish to finish.
Note:
Please be aware that discoloration may occur depending on the color of the genuine leather and the cream.
