While in school, the wearing of leather shoes was mandatory for male students. But we are lazy people and after prayer time sometimes the shoes are put on like slippers with the back part near the heel not put on. Shoes are worn like slippers and as a result this part is badly damaged from being stepped on every day.
In Japan they realized there are leather shoe owners who want comfort. With shoes having to be opened when entering a house and a restaurant for example, the process of wearing leather shoes is a little tedious. Named Borderless Genuine Leather Shoes, they are offered by the firm Texcy Luxe which is a subsidiary of Asics.
The back near the heel of this shoe is made of genuine leather which is softer than the rest of the leather. Owners can wear these shoes like slippers for comfort without having to worry about the back being damaged or torn due to frequent folding. In Japan, Borderless Genuine Leather Shoes are sold at a price of 14080 Yen (~RM470) a pair.
