Martial Arts Footwear

Bagua Shoes Inspired by Kung Fu and Tai Chi

Bagua Shoes belong to a French footwear line inspired by traditional Kung Fu and Tai Chi slippers.

The story started when graffiti artist Jay One and his friends watched a Bruce Lee movie. They loved the footwear, but couldn’t find the right pair in Paris.

Bagua shoes stay true to Kung Fu culture with the elegant and light weight nature of the footwear. Bagua shoes are designed for movement and are perfect for active walkers.
