Okabashi
Okabashi, an American success story in footwear, began with a commitment to health, comfort, and sustainability. The company was founded by a family that immigrated to the United States and brought with them a deep understanding of reflexology and foot health. This knowledge, combined with a desire to create durable and supportive footwear, led to the development of their signature ergonomic arch support and massage beads. Since its inception, Okabashi has prioritized creating shoes that not only feel good but are also good for the planet, focusing on responsible manufacturing and a closed-loop recycling program for their products.
Okabashi proudly manufactures all of its footwear in the United States, a practice they have maintained since their founding. Their factory is located in Buford, Georgia. This dedicated facility allows Okabashi to maintain strict quality control over every aspect of production, from sourcing materials to the final product. By keeping their manufacturing processes in-house and in the U.S., Okabashi ensures a higher standard of craftsmanship, supports American jobs, and significantly reduces their carbon footprint compared to overseas production. Their commitment to domestic manufacturing is a cornerstone of their brand identity and their dedication to both product quality and environmental responsibility.
