Created as a collaboration between the artisan leather brand and the furniture designers, the Hender Scheme x Karimoku Nature Sandal shoe is an exercise in artistic minimalism. The slide sandal is crafted from ultra-premium materials and consists of a premium maple wood midsole and a cowhide leather strap that create a very simple aesthetic when paired.
The Hender Scheme x Karimoku Nature Sandal features a footbed that has been ergonomically sanded and shaped to ensure that it's as comfortable as possible. With time, the footbed will soften and mold to the wearer's foot for an ultra-comfortable experience.
The Hender Scheme x Karimoku Nature Sandal shoe is crafted from premium, minimalist materials that work to ensure it's ready to last a lifetime of wear in the warm weather.
