This is a new sole brand that was launched in 2021. It is pronounced " Lebear ."

2. What are the features of RUBEAR?

RUBEAR soles are developed with the theme of " pursuing the possibilities of soles ." The first product, the " RUBEAR CNF sole ," has succeeded in incorporating "cellulose nanofiber," a plant-based fiber material stronger than steel, into the rubber of the outsole. We will continue to create innovative soles without being bound by conventional wisdom.

3 What shape is the RUBEAR logo?

The motif is the old company emblem of Nichiman Co., Ltd., the parent company of Spingle Company. The M has been changed to an R, and the design has been changed to a three-dimensional look reminiscent of rubber. In addition, the orange used in both the Nichiman and Spingle logos has been made a little darker to convey the meaning of "joining forces."

4. Where does the name RUBEAR come from?

The name is a combination of the words "rubber" and "bear." The "bear" comes from the attitude our employees aim for: "to be as solid as a bear, to think carefully, and to work thoughtfully."
