Nikko Geta Clogs

日光下駄

Nikko geta are a unique combination of classic geta (wooden Japanese sandals) and zori (woven straw sandals). Zori are traditional footwear when entering the sacred precincts of a shrine or temple, but in Nikko wooden soles were added to increase stability and ease of walking on sloped surfaces or through snow. They help keep your feet cool in summer and warm in winter, and can be worn with either a kimono or Western clothes.
