    Kongo zori (strong, durable zori) made in the Edo period (1603-1868) were sold at three mon (an old unit of currency) for two pairs, giving rise to the expression 'nisokusanmon' (two pairs for three mon), meaning dirt cheap. [Original Japanese] Zori are a sandal-like type of Japanese traditional footwear.
    Zori with a woven wicker covering are referred to as tatami omote [b] If it is woven of rice straw (as above), they are wara-zōri. If they are woven on the same four-warp pattern, but using a weft of bamboo sheath (peelings of bamboo culms ), they are takegawa (たけがわ, 竹皮) zori, literally bamboo-skin zori.

    Except for the workwear type, women’s zori are always raised in the heel. The sole is also gently rounded in shape, so that to Western eyes they look more like regular shoes than geta. Men’s zori, while also slightly rounded, are always flat.
    Sewn-on outsoles are just visible at the edges. The zori originated as a slip-on form of the tie-on waraji. In the Edo period (1603-1867), the production of zori became professionalized, and a variety of fancy types of zori emerged, using fancier materials.
