Indoor Shoes for School

As many people already know, Japanese people take their shoes off at the entrance of houses when they enter. That happens at school as well.

When students get into the school, they take their shoes off and wear indoor shoes called UWABAKI instead. Every student has own shoe box. That is so typical that there are so many shoe boxes at the entrance in school.

This is how Japanese children learn the custom which is taking off shoes when getting into houses, school and so on.
