2年前の5月、初めて姫路にあるタンナーさんを訪れました。姫路は日本三大皮革産地のひとつで、国内生産革の７割が姫路産と言われています。

靴に携わって早15年強。ずっと本革を扱っているのに一度も行ったことがなかった姫路。いつかいつかと思っていた時、とあるご縁に恵まれてついに行くことができました。そして、2年後の今日、やっとブログを書いています。（遅い！）

伺ったのはNOAのガラスレザーをつくってくださっているセナレザーさん。

It is said that there are few young craftsmen in the shoe industry. About 15 years ago when I started working with shoes, the most active craftsmen were men in their 60s and 70s, and I think more than half of them are now retired.

Sellenatela's best-selling item NOA was designed from designer Enomoto's desire to create modern lace-up boots that are not influenced by trends, and was born in the 2016 Fall/Winter collection five years ago.

Continuing from the previous "SHOE CARE recommendation vol.1", this time, we will introduce shoe care practice for each material that is often used for Sellenatela shoes. First, let's start with the basic shoe care method for leather that is relatively easy to handle, such as smooth leather.

“Shoes are expendable items,” I often hear people say. It's true that shoes wear out faster than other items you wear. However, shoes, especially leather shoes, are items that can be used for a long time with proper care.

If you've been following Sellenatela's Instagram, you may have seen the hashtag above, where you can find inspiration. As mentioned several times in the web content "STORIES", designer Enomoto at Sellenatela creates shoes inspired by art, design, architecture, and the shapes woven by nature.
