Uwabaki (上履き) are a type of Japanese slippers worn indoors at school or certain companies and public buildings where street shoes are prohibited. Japanese culture mandates that people should remove their shoes when entering homes and other buildings, especially where the floors may have rugs, polished wood floors, or tatami.
