【Jutta Neumann】A legend from New York. The Rolls-Royce of sandals embodies the ultimate "beauty of utility."
The definitive summer footwear from Arzac Kamakura.
Sandals from **Jutta Neumann**, who have a workshop in New York's East Village, have arrived.
Once you put them on, you'll never go back to other sandals. The reason for this is the designer's dedication and the overwhelming quality achieved through bench-made production (where one craftsman completes every step of the process).
1. Designer Jutta Neumann and the Brand's Journey
Designer Jutta Neumann was born in Germany. After moving to New York in the 1980s and training under a legendary leather craftsman, he launched his own eponymous brand in 1994.
Her sandals quickly captivated fashion-forward individuals in New York, and by the late 1990s, they had been featured in Anna Sui's shows, establishing a firm position in the fashion world. Even today, she continues to uphold traditional manufacturing methods in her workshop in the East Village, working with a small team of artisans.
2. Unique manufacturing method: "Arch support" for the arch of the foot
The most distinctive feature of Jutta Neumann chairs is their unique **"arch support"**. The sole, made of durable Latigo leather, has a three-dimensional shape with a large, raised arch support.
They may feel stiff at first, but as you wear them, the arch will mold to the shape of your foot, evolving into a custom-made fit. This break-in period, sometimes called "training," is what creates the perfect comfort and is the reason why they have so many fans.
Furthermore, the outsole uses a sole from "BIRKENSTOCK." It offers excellent cushioning and durability, and the sole is replaceable, making it a pair of shoes that can be worn for 10 or even 20 years.
These sandals are more like leather shoes with arch support than typical sandals, and are a lifelong item that you can cherish and wear for many years.
■ ALICE
This is Jutta Neumann's most popular and iconic model.
Featuring a strap that holds the thumb securely, these shoes offer excellent support and are comfortable even during long walks. Their rugged yet refined appearance makes them perfect not only with jeans and military pants, but also as a stylish accent to dressier slacks.

■ SIMONE
"Simone" is a minimalist slipper-type shoe with all its ornamentation removed.
Compared to the Alice model, these shoes are easier to put on and take off, giving a more relaxed impression. The thick strap that deeply covers the instep directly conveys the texture of the Latigo leather, making these shoes a sophisticated choice that exudes adult confidence.
