Mens Leather Chappals Hand-Stitched Cowhide Kaptaan Chappals
These mens leather chappals are open sandals in the Kaptaan style. Each pair has a flat sole and wide leather straps across the foot. The upper is 1.4-1.5 mm cowhide, stitched by hand. Leather Collection has made leather gear since 2009, and every pair is made to order.
Why Leather Chappals
Cowhide is firm at first and softens with wear. Over time it shapes to your foot. Hand-stitched seams hold the straps to the sole. The open design keeps your feet cool on warm days. Chappals go well with a kurta, jeans or shorts.
What size should I order? Measure your foot length and compare it with the Size Guide. How do I care for them? Wipe them with a soft cloth each week. Use a leather conditioner now and then. See the leather care instructions for more.
Stand on a sheet of paper and mark your heel and longest toe. Measure the gap between the two marks. Then compare that number with the Size Guide. If you fall between two sizes, pick the larger one, since open sandals need a little room at the heel. Do this in the evening, when feet are at their largest. If a number is unclear, ask through the customer service page before you order.
Each pair is made from cowhide, 1.4-1.5 mm thick. That is firm enough to hold its shape and soft enough to bend with your step. The straps are stitched by hand to the sole. The leather starts a bit stiff and softens after a few days of wear. Over time it shapes to your foot. Each pair is made to order after you place it.
You can choose black, brown or tan. Black is the most formal and suits work or events. Brown goes with almost any outfit. Tan is light and warm, so it works well in summer. For a dark pair, black is a simple pick. For a warm shade, try brown or tan. Each color has its own product page with photos.
A Kaptaan chappal is a style of open leather sandal. It has a flat sole, a wide strap over the toes and a strap across the top of the foot. Many pairs close with a buckle at the side. It is worn with a kurta, but it also goes with jeans or chinos. The tan pair shows the style in a light shade.
Wipe your chappals with a soft, dry cloth to take off dust. If they get wet, let them dry at room temperature, away from heaters and direct sun. Use a leather conditioner every few months so the cowhide does not dry out or crack. Store them in a cool, dry place. The leather care instructions explain each step in more detail.
