The Urban Classic - Men's Kolhapuris

Vama Kolhapuris are made from 100% pure, naturally tanned leather. Soft, breathable, and built to last — each pair feels better the more you wear it.

With the right care, for years — even decades. The leather only gets more beautiful with age, developing a rich patina that’s unique to you.

Keep them away from water.

Wipe gently with a dry cloth to remove dust.

Apply a little castor oil occasionally to keep the leather nourished.

If you'd like a little extra shine, polish them using neutral leather wax once in a while.

Avoid keeping them in a closed space for a long time.

We’d say no. Pure leather and water aren’t the best of friends. Keep them dry to maintain their shape, texture, and finish.

Absolutely. Each pair molds to your feet over time, giving you a fit that’s unique to you. The more you walk in them, the softer and more comfortable they become.

Kolhapuris trace back over 800 years to the artisans of Kolhapur, Maharashtra. Once made for local royalty, they remain a timeless symbol of Indian craftsmanship. Each pair is still handmade using age-old techniques — no machines, no shortcuts — just pure leather, patience, and tradition shaped into footwear that carries history with every step.

That slight sound is normal and comes from the fresh leather soles. It gradually disappears as the chappals soften and take your foot’s shape.
