A thorough guide to "YS Tech Leather"!

One of the latest YASUDA models is a unique material called "YS Tech Leather."

You may sometimes see the phrase 'YS Tech Leather Adopted' on product pages,

"What kind of material is it?"
"How is it different from conventional artificial leather or kangaroo leather?"

Many people may feel this way.

So this time, we will take an in-depth look at the true identity of "YS Tech Leather," which supports the evolution of YASUDA's shoes, and its appeal.

■ What is YS Tech Leather? A new generation of performance hidden in "about 1mm"

YS Tech Leather is a carefully selected 'microfiber polyurethane' for shoes by YASUDA.

"Artificial Leather"

When you hear this, you might think it's improved compared to the past, but some people might think it's "stiff and hard to fit in" or "doesn't stretch."

However, YS Tech Leather is only about 1mm thick,

・Stretches supplely like natural leather
・Blends in with the shape of your feet

It offers excellent flexibility.

and yet

・Properly return to its original shape

It is truly a new-generation material that combines moderate resilience with high strength.

■ YASUDA, dedicated to kangaroo leather, offers a "material we've been satisfied with"

"When you think of YASUDA, it's Kangaroo Leather."

As is often said, YASUDA has prioritized "comfort and fit" by using kangaroo leather in its shoes.

YASUDA confidently chooses and uses this "YS Tech Leather" as a material for soccer shoes, without compromising on foot comfort or fit.

It achieves a supple fit that matches kangaroo leather, while overcoming the natural leather's unique absorption and deterioration from rain and moisture.

"I want to use it toughly even during tough daily practice."
"I don't want to compromise on comfort, but I want to wear them without worrying about the condition."

It is used as a material to solve the real problems faced by players.

■ Achieving uncompromising comfort and excellent cost performance

Another major advantage of YS Tech Leather is its "excellent cost performance."

In recent years, natural leather (such as kangaroo leather) has become increasingly rare worldwide, making the shoes themselves tend to be expensive.

"I want to try the comfort of YASUDA, but the price is a bit price-wise."
"It's hard to buy expensive spikes for children whose sizes change quickly during their growth period."

YS Tech Leather thoroughly addresses the concerns of such players and their families.

While pursuing comfort and flexibility, we have kept material costs down to offer products at more accessible price points.

"Uncompromising comfort" and "affordable price."
This balance is precisely why YS Tech Leather is called YASUDA's new standard.

■ Real feedback from players who have actually worn them

Thanks to your support, we have been receiving a steady stream of positive reviews from players who have actually purchased shoes made with YS Tech leather, sharing their comfort and comfort.

"The fit is natural. It's soft from the start and absorbs quickly."

"Compared to other spikes, they fit my feet faster!"

"For many years, I bought smaller spikes like kangaroos to stretch out and let them fit in, but from the start, they fit perfectly and naturally."

"It felt like the ball was hitting my foot firmly, making it easy to kick."

"It's synthetic leather, but it's soft and blends in easily. At this price, I don't think there's anything else like this."

In this way, many players have demonstrated that "you can fit barefoot from the start."

■ Overwhelming "Easy Care (Easy Maintenance)"

While the "maintenance to nurture the leather," which is the true appeal of natural leather, can be a challenging task if used frequently.

In fact, it is true that "shoes made of natural leather that are not cared for will be damaged and fragile."

YS Tech Leather's major strength lies in the overwhelming ease of care, unique to artificial leather.

Even on rainy days or mud stains, just wipe off with a tightly wrung cloth after use and it will be clean.
Of course, you need to remove sand and dirt that gets in the gaps, but even without special care, you can always keep them supple.

The ease and toughness of this maintenance are also reasons why it is highly valued by club members, working professionals, and parents alike.

■ Rapidly adopting the latest models! Recommended for different uses

This YS Tech leather has been adopted in various YASUDA models in recent years.

・Everything about the Ligaresta kids series
・Everything about the Ligaresta Jr. series

・Ligaresta Ace/Ace wide (spikes)
・Ligaresta TF2 (Turf Shoes)
・Ligaresta IN2 (indoor shoes)

(As of August 2026.) ）

In fact, the first time YS Tech leather was adopted was for shoes for "kids and Jr.."

What kind of material is best for shoes worn by children in their early childhood and growth stages? From that perspective, we arrived at YS Tech Leather, which combines gentleness and strength.

Whether you've been a fan of YASUDA's kangaroo leather models until now, or haven't tried them yet, I highly recommend experiencing this new comfort firsthand at least once.

Also, if you already own YS Tech leather shoes with spikes or training shoes, why not try a "different model" made from the same material (for indoor or turf), which is different for different purposes?

With outstanding compatibility unique to the same material, it should deliver top-level performance in any pitch condition without any discomfort.

■ In Conclusion

To maintain "unchanged comfort," YASUDA is constantly evolving in its material selection.

Experience YASUDA's dedication packed into about 1mm thickness on the pitch or court!
