Although it is called Kolhapuri Chappal which is famous across the world for its unique design and it originated in Kolhapur district, we found a huge market in Pune dedicated to it!
Right in the heart of the city in Rasta Peth, lies a line of 6 consecutive shops selling the original Kolhapuri Chappal and its varieties.
It is surprising to know that this market exists in Pune for years but Punekars are not quite aware of it. Also, every time you think of Kolhapuri Chappals, you don’t have to travel to Kolhapur to buy one. You get it right here in Pune and you have 6 options of shops to choose from! Isn’t that an exciting exploration of Pune city!
Janata Chappals, Varsha Footwear, Balaji Marketing, Bhagyashri Leather Works, Dhum Kolhapuri, Sunil Foot Wear, and Popular Footwear are the names of these shops in the market. Some of them are wholesalers of Kolhapuri Chappals and some are makers too. That means the prices you get here are also quite reasonable. If you have a broken Kolhapuri Chappal, these mochis even get those repaired for you and they are skilled perfectly for the same!
Classic double belt Kolhapuri, another classic with the right foot tapping sound, the latest fashionable Kolhapuri, Mojaris and a lot many designs are on display in various colors. The leather is genuine and the craftsmanship of every piece is on point. This Kolhapuri Market is legit and authentic!
Located very near to Tilak Ayurved Mahavidayalaya in Rasta Peth, these shops are very easy to locate. This wedding season, if you are looking for Kolhapuris to pair with your desi outfit or if Kolhapuri is a lifestyle you follow, you must be aware of this market in Pune that has existed for years!
