Leather Care: Your NIIRA Kolhapuri Chappals are crafted from premium, natural leather that develops a beautiful patina over time. To maintain their quality:

• Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after each wear to remove dust
• For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap, then air dry naturally
• Apply leather conditioner every few weeks to keep the leather supple
• Avoid prolonged exposure to water, direct sunlight, or extreme heat

Storage:

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Use shoe trees or stuff with paper to maintain shape
• Keep in a breathable cloth bag to prevent moisture buildup

Breaking In: Handcrafted leather softens and molds to your feet over time. Initial stiffness is normal and will ease with wear, creating a custom fit unique to you.

Natural Variations: As each pair is hand-painted and handcrafted by artisans, slight color variations and natural leather markings are part of the authentic character, not defects.

Repairs: Quality leather can be resoled and repaired. Contact us for artisan repair services to extend the life of your chappals.
