Our Craft

The Hands Behind Every Stitch

Juti-making is a family craft. So is the way we buy it.

Ten generations, three cities

From vegetable-tanned leather to the last stitch, all of it by hand.

Juti-making is a centuries-old craft of Rajasthan. In the lanes of Jodhpur, Jaipur and Bikaner, artisan families have passed down the art of hand-stitching footwear for over ten generations.

What a pair goes through

Six steps, in the order they happen in a family workshop.

  1. Cut and stitched by hand in a family workshop, one pair at a time.

  2. Vegetable-tanned leather, silk, velvet and jute, sourced from Rajasthan.

  3. Zardozi gold thread is embroidered by hand, stitch by stitch.

  4. Mirror work and pearl detailing are set by hand.

  5. Every pair is finished, checked and packed in the workshop that made it.

  6. Made in Jodhpur, Jaipur and Bikaner by artisan families.
