Custom-Made Leather Shoes Crafted by Asakusa Artisans
MARNON is a custom shoe brand tailored to fit Japanese feet, born from the director's pain point of "Limited color and material choices for outsize ready-make shoes, and disliking the shape of domestically made custom shoes," whose shoe size is 21.5cm.The director tried overseas custom shoes but ultimately wasn't satisfied with the fit. Determined to provide a fit suitable for Japanese feet, a shape that also beautifully accentuates the feet and legs, and custom leather shoes that match the skin tones of the Japanese – MARNON was born, offering a wide size range of 21-26cm.
