We Are Recruiting MERI Ambassadors

We are looking for people who can help us share the charm of MERI with the world.

At MERI, we seek those who resonate with our craftsmanship. Our main items are handmade nuno-zōri (fabric sandals) and special split-toe socks designed to be worn with them. We would love for you to bring these items into your daily life, capture those moments, and share them. Through your Instagram, YouTube, or other platforms, we hope more people around the world can discover the unbelievable comfort of MERI.

Meeting a Taiwanese Influencer

Last year, we had the pleasure of meeting Haru, a young woman from Taiwan. She came to Japan on a working holiday and spent a year working in PR for a kimono company. She told us she wanted to do a job that could only be done in Japan.

Her passion for Japanese culture started in Taiwan, where she had already been taking lessons in kimono dressing, so working in kimono PR was a natural fit. On her Instagram, you can find many of her kimono styling posts.

During her stay in Japan, she reached out to us because she was interested in our nuno-zōri workshop. At that time, she already had more than 100,000 followers, so we thought many people who admired her lifestyle might also discover and embrace MERI.

Her curiosity and energy brought her to our shop in Sumida, Tokyo, where she joined a workshop to make her own nuno-zōri. When she shared the experience on Instagram, the response was overwhelming. Many people, both from Japan and overseas, came to visit us after seeing her post.



Since her audience aligns closely with our vision of MERI’s customers, we have continued to collaborate with her. Every few months, she films and posts videos, including behind-the-scenes content at our workshop, such as how our materials are woven. Each video has received great engagement. Next, we plan to film at our sock factory and embroidery studio.
