V1 [[Platform footwear|Platform]] [[sandals]] that are (traditionally) worn by [[geisha]] during their apprenticeship. The most notable type in fanart are the black-lacquered kind with red straps.

(Technically, the black-lacquered finish is only worn mainly during summer, and the color of the straps used changes depending upon how far along the apprentice geisha is in her training)

Notable wearers: [[Onozuka Komachi]]

Not to be confused with [[geta]], which are also elevated from the ground but are done so with two square "teeth" on the sole instead of being made as a solid block.
