Nakas

Nakas are a type of traditional Japanese footwear, typically worn by men. The term "naka" translates to "thigh" in Japanese, referring to the length of the shoe, which covers the thigh. Nakas are known for their simplicity and functionality, often made from leather or canvas, and are typically worn with traditional Japanese clothing such as kimonos or hakama. They are often associated with the samurai and geisha cultures, although they are not exclusive to these groups. Nakas are usually open-toed and have a simple, flat sole. They are often worn with geta, another type of traditional Japanese footwear, which are worn over the naka. Nakas are a symbol of Japanese culture and heritage, and are often worn for special occasions or traditional events.
