About This

• Comfy shoehorn A long shoehorn with a wooden base. This wooden shoehorn stands beautifully in the entranceway, the face of the house. The shoehorn is long, at 72 cm, so you can put on your shoes while standing without bending your knees. The shoehorn body fits easily into the base, making it easy for anyone to use. The shoehorn is easy to grip and take out, making it highly practical.
• The beautiful curved shape is a design that can be used as an object on the entrance floor, and the luxurious texture carved from solid wood will satisfy both users and non-users. The surface is carefully finished, so the wood feels very pleasant to the touch, and the warmth of the material is conveyed.
• Together with nature SASAKI was raised in Asahikawa, where the snowfields spread out in pure white. We live together with nature. Our work lies somewhere between what is made by human hands and what is made by nature. No matter how much ingenuity and technology we pursue, each piece of wood has its own quirks and expressions, and each finished product is different. The fun of making things is the collaboration between uncompromising human work and the beauty of nature.
• What the majestic nature has taught us is to face everything honestly. SASAKI's manufacturing is at its best in combining the characteristics of both craftsmanship and machine processing, achieving a balance between a shape that is close to one-of-a-kind and the precision required for mass production. The ingenuity of our employees is packed into it.
• That's why we are both craftsmen and operators at the same time. Each product combines the design of the shape and the functionality of the user, and we repeatedly consider efficiency and cost management linked to the process. Unremitting trial and error always creates new technologies and processing, and nurtures SASAKI's unique products and craftsmen. SASAKI is a manufacturer that grows with things.
