Announcement of Sponsorship for “Shoeshine Grand Prix 2025

Our company is pleased to announce that we have become an official sponsor of the Shoeshine Grand Prix 2025, a shoeshine craftsmanship competition organized by the Japan Leather Products Maintenance Association (Head Office: Taito-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Hiroyuki Ozawa).

First held in 2018 under the theme of “Promoting and Developing Shoeshine Culture,” this event will mark its sixth edition in 2025. To date, a total of 350 contestants have participated, and the 2024 competition welcomed approximately 2,000 spectators, making it one of the largest shoeshine events in the world.

For the 2025 competition, the event will be held in Sapporo for the first time. In addition, six regional tournaments across Japan are scheduled, including the Tohoku-Hokuriku, Kanto-Koshinetsu, and Chugoku-Shikoku areas, as officially recognized qualifying events. With the expansion of competition categories, the event is expected to generate even greater excitement. (For details regarding dates and venues, please refer to the official event website.)

In addition to shoeshine competitions, each venue will feature a variety of attractions, including workshops and sales of related items. The event offers entertainment not only for shoe enthusiasts but also for families, and we warmly welcome your attendance.
