Limited-time shop "RFW FUKUOKA" opens at Hakata Hankyu in Fukuoka
Domestic shoe brand "RFW," designed by Takashi Kanoko, will open a limited-time shop called "RFW FUKUOKA" from Saturday, April 25th to Wednesday, April 29th (holiday) at a special venue on the 3rd floor ladies' floor of Hakata Hankyu in Fukuoka.

Simple, original designs
The limited-time shop in Fukuoka will feature models using Okayama-produced denim for the uppers of RFW's classic "BAGEL" and slip-on "ROLL," as well as the "TACO KATSURAGI" model with a highly durable Katsuragi material upper.
The "TACO" model features an upper made from just two pieces of fabric, creating a flowing pattern and a distinct design on the inside and outside. The new model's two-tone color scheme is a highlight, with an appealing antique texture.
The slip-on model "ROLL DENIM" has a comfortable, relaxed fit with a moderate volume. Its upper is made from one-wash, 12-ounce denim from Okayama Prefecture.
Collaboration with textile brand "nowartt"
The "BAGEL-LO2 nowartt MARATHON" model is born from a collaboration with textile brand "nowartt," now in its fourth season. The "MARATHON pattern" features an original print of the Boston Marathon course across the entire upper. It's a narrative design, evoking the journey from Hopkinton in Massachusetts, passing through landmarks like Framingham Station, Wellesley College, and the Newton hills, with imagery of wheelchair runners racing towards the finish line.
Designs with attention to detail also featured
The "SANDWICH FLEX-LO" features a design inheriting the two "wings" of RFW's classic "SANDWICH" model. With a total of four eyelets, it's a simple upper with an internal spring on the first wing and an external spring on the second, yet its detailed design stylishly adorns your feet.
Although the venue for the "RFW FUKUOKA" limited-time shop is on the ladies' floor, many men's sizes are also available. Customers who purchase shoes during the period will receive an RFW logo tote bag on a first-come, first-served basis (while supplies last).
Choose a refreshing sneaker suitable for spring and summer from RFW's diverse models and rich color variations.
