Not everyone knows this but the Olympic pictograms, those icons that indicate which sport is which in a way that transcends languages, were first used at the 1964 Olympics. So it would follow that the Japanese would have a special affinity for these abstract yet specific icons and they would use them in some of the official Olympics merchandise - like the Tokyo 2020 Pictograms Asics Flip Flops.
The Tokyo 2020 Pictograms Asics Flip Flops come in one color (blue) but their soles are filled with the pictograms in bright yellow, which makes for a great combination. Add in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics logo and the Olympic rings emblem on their heels, and you have footwear that is as practical as it is characteristic of the event they commemorate.
