TheGym Court sneakers is a re-working of a classic 1960's tennis shoe. They are sewn and assembled completely by hand in Moonstar's Kurume factory located in western Japan. The factory has been up and running since 1873 and takes pride in making durable and long lasting shoes!
Compared to the Moonstar Gym Classics, the Gym Court has extra cushioning support for the ankle and an extra layer of black rubber around the sole.
Vulcanised rubber is aprocess that was invented back in 1844 and the basics of themethod is that natural rubber is mixed with sulphur and then heated. The heating will change thechemical structure of the materialcreating cross links between polymers to make them stronger and more durable! The name is inspired byVulcan who is the Roman god of fire.
The thick canvas fabric is made of 100% cotton. They’re also finished off with an extra thick rubber toe cap that serves as a toe guard for addedsafety and durability.
