About our introductory articles


Hello. Today I'm talking about the Jumbo Slippers manufactured by Maruwa Chemical inc. They are a company who stands in Takaoka, Toyama, Japan. As the name tells, Jumbo Slippers are the large-size black slippers. And I don't have any other ideas to explain.

What is slippers? you may ask. In several countries including Japan, people usually take off their shoes for getting indoors. However, being naked on feet maybe makes you feel kind of cool. And they use slippers indoors instead of shoes. In other words, slippers mean the shoes for indoor.

The Jumbo Slippers, however, are not for wearing in usual way. People wear usual shoes, and take the Jumbo Slippers additionally. Sometimes we are hard to take off shoes for entering indoors. For instance, a high school student plays basket ball at a gym, hears call of nature. He/she desires to go to some toilet they usually use in school buildings (Japanese normal school gyms don't have toilet). But it is quite hard to take off basket ball shoes at once, as you know if you have played basket ball. In such a case, they can go to school buildings so soon without taking off their basket ball shoes if they have the Jumbo Slippers there.
