Founded in 1873 in Kurume, Japan, Moonstar began as a producer of traditional Tabi footwear before evolving into a globally respected shoe manufacturer. With a history spanning nearly 150 years, the company has built a reputation on its unwavering commitment to quality and its specialized vulcanization process. This technique, similar to firing pottery, involves kiln-firing the rubber soles at high temperatures to create exceptionally durable, flexible, and comfortable footwear.
