The House of Rice has been selling these geta for a few years. Unlike more expensive geta, they are made of a soft wood instead of the traditional kiri/paulownia. The wood is very light in color and can be finished with wood stain or paint and you'll have a great looking pair of geta.In Japan, people like the sound of geta clacking along, in Japanese the sound is said to be karan-koron. Outside Japan, people seem to prefer quiet geta. It's not hard to add rubber pads on the teeth (ha in Japanese), just cut up an old bicycle tire and attach to the wood with contact cement, tacks, or staples.
