“dito” – Custom-Made Shoes Crafted from Vintage Shoe Lasts from Around the World
Custom-made shoes designed to suit each customer's order. They are an aspiration for those who want to enjoy a more mature sense of fashion, but it’s not uncommon to struggle with which brand to choose. That’s why this time, we’d like to introduce a brand called dito.
Once you discover what sets Dito apart from conventional custom shoemakers and hear from the two shoemakers behind the brand, Kai Ishii and Fumiya Masubuchi, you’ll start to appreciate the unique appeal of Dito.
Crafting Shoes Using Vintage Shoe Lasts from Japan & Abroad
The standout characteristic of Dito is creating shoes based on vintage shoe lasts collected from Japan and overseas. You won’t easily find another brand employing this shoemaking approach. Let’s take a deeper dive into Dito’s approach to shoemaking.“Even before starting Dito, we had been collecting vintage shoe lasts, and now we own lasts from six countries: America, Italy, Germany, France, Japan, and the UK. Among the many custom-made shoe brands, we thought it would be interesting to have a brand that lets you ‘choose a country and make shoes.’”
