Split-toe tabi shoes

The tabi was born in Japan: first a sock, then a shoe, whose split toe separates the big toe from the others. What looks like a style statement is first a matter of balance: the foot finds the grip it has when barefoot. It takes a few wears to get used to, and then you won't want to go without. Tabi Yubi brings together a handful of split-toe models, and the socks that go with them.
