■Product Introduction
This sneaker collection is a collaboration between "SPINGLE MOVE", a domestic sneaker brand that is developed and produced entirely in Japan using a unique manufacturing method (vulcanization method), and "Mobile Suit Gundam". The slip-on model is made of nylon jacquard knit, making it stretchy and easy to put on and take off. The removable cup insole is a special collaboration design with both brand names on it.
There are three designs: Earth Federation Forces, Zeon Forces, and Char Aznable. The uppers are colored to represent each of them, and each mark is embroidered on them for a smart look. The heel tape also features the STRICT-G logo, making this a special collaboration item. The outsoles have also been changed to match the color of the uppers, making this a pair of shoes that has been carefully designed down to the smallest detail.

*The vulcanization process involves putting sulfur-containing rubber into a special furnace and applying high pressure to harden the rubber, firmly bonding the upper and outsole. The rolled-up sole made using this process creates a classic form.
*Not sold at Spingle stores.
