Breaking In Your Jutis

Genuine vegetable-tanned leather is naturally firm when new. Some stiffness during the first few wears is completely normal — it is a sign of authentic, untreated leather, not a defect.

• First 1–3 wears: Wear for short durations (1–2 hours) to allow the leather to begin moulding to your foot.
• Gradual softening: With continued use, the leather flexes and softens along your natural pressure points, improving fit and comfort over 5–7 wears.
• Tip: Wearing a pair of thin cotton socks during the first couple of outings can ease the break-in process and reduce friction.

Leather Care Instructions

Proper care keeps your Kolhapuri jutis looking and feeling their best for years.

• Keep leather dry: Avoid prolonged exposure to water or rain. If the jutis get wet, do not place them near direct heat or sunlight to dry — this can cause cracking.
• Drying: Stuff with dry newspaper or a cloth and allow to air-dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
• Conditioning: Once dry, apply a small amount of leather conditioner or colourless shoe cream to restore suppleness. Buff gently with a soft cloth.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a dust bag or the original box to prevent dust build-up.
• When care is no longer appropriate: If the leather develops deep cracks, the sole separates, or the hand-braiding frays extensively, the product has reached the end of its wearable life and conditioning will not restore structural integrity.
