PROUDLY made in Asia! The number one question we get is, "what's the difference between Italian AP87s and Asia Yellow Thread sneakers?" Just the manufacturing location! The same great Italian leather and natural rubber are used, and the YT has a more comfortable sneaker like feel due to a thicker and softer footbed. That's the only difference!

customer care
To keep these sneakers looking Forever Fresh, all they need is a gentle wipe with a wet cloth. Real full grain leather cleans so easily!
LUXURY IS IN THE DETAILS
The best materials (leathers, rubbers etc…) in the world go into these sneakers. They will look Forever Fresh for a lifetime.
-
Full Grain Italian Leather
Our luxury leather is the best in the world. It is extremely soft and doesn’t need to use plastic paints to cover up imperfections. Unlike cheaper leathers it won’t crack, or lose its shape. Our leather will mold to the shape of your feet over time, providing that custom fit and enhanced comfort. The durability of genuine leather means these are built to last.
-
Goodbye Creasing
While all sneakers will crease, our does the minimal amount possible. We tested 100s of different leathers and backers, and found some that provide extreme comfort without extreme creasing. These keep the FOB (fresh out of the box) look!
-
Natural Rubber Bottom
Our 100% biodegradable natural rubber is extremely soft while maintaining its shape. It’s like you’re walking on a cloud
-
Waxed Laces
We know how important it is to look fresh…nobody wants dirty laces. So, we took the extra step of waxing our laces to keep them looking clean for longer. If they ever get dirty, let us know and we’ll send you a new pair.
-
Calf Leather Interior Lining
The inside of the shoe is covered in supple calf leather for an amazing feel, and lifetime of comfort and good smells. So cheap cloth that absorbs smells!
-
Unapologetically Asian American
We are Asian. We are Asian American. As good as our shoes look and feel, when we’re inside, we leave our shoes at the door. That’s how we were raised.
THE LOVE IS REAL
Absolutely LOVE my AP87's!
Absolutely LOVE my AP87's! While I wouldn't consider myself a sneakerhead, I freaking love shoes -- especially ones that radiate quality and comfort. The leather on these things doesn't just look good, it FEELS good on your feet! How a shoe can be soft AND comfortable is beyond me, but my favorite shoes hit both those qualities and these do so in spades. The best part? The hidden messages inside the shoes. As a Korean adoptee, I am trying to figure out what Asian America looks like for me; these shoes are so important to that.

These sneakers are amazing!
These sneakers are amazing! I got bored buying the same low quality AF1s, and now that I'm working and more of an adult (ha), I wanted to elevate my sneakers. The leather and natural rubber bottom feel amazing, like clouds on my feet. The leather is so butter soft, and the rubber sole has so much cushioning. I had no idea how bad the AF1 stuff was until I got my feet into these!!! Also, love the companies mission and celebrating Asian American culture

Frequently
Asked Questions
Why is Italian Full Grain leather and natural rubber important?
Full grain leather will look amazing for a lifetime. It resists creases and warping, and can be easily cleaned with a cloth and water. Natural rubber is incredibly soft and durable, and has a high rebound rate so it keeps its shape over thousands of miles. Commercial sneakers from big brands use cheap and hard leather covered in plastic paint (to hide imperfections), and this causes deep creasing and cracks over time. Their rubber is a thin and hard synthetic that isn’t comfortable and loses its shape in a matter of months.
What makes you an Asian American Brand?
1587 is Asian American owned and operated. We use our brand and platform to shine the spotlight on our Asian American stories, our style, and celebrate Asian American culture, authentically.
Why are sneakers made in Asia
We want our sneakers accessible to everyone, and Asia production allows us to make a better product at a lower retail price. Let me explain :)!!!
Asia production requires massive order quantity, but with this comes
amazing savings that we directly pass on to you. We were able to take
$100 off the retail price and use the same (and world's best) leather
and natural rubber. We were even able to make the sneakers more comfortable by using a thicker and more advanced footbed. Asian sneaker craftsman are equally skilled to Italians, and anyone who says differently also said MSG in Chinese food will kill you.
Which factories produce the sneakers?
We use the same materials and factories as many of the major fashion houses that begin with L, G, and Y.
What is the Zero Risk policy?
If you have a size issue or any other thing arises, we have a no questions asked policy for 30 days.
