Poona Single Vadhi Kapashi Kolhapuri | Dark Walnut Artisan Leather
​A striking blend of traditional geometry and rugged elegance. The Poona Single Vadhi Kapashi Kolhapuri showcases one of the most iconic shapes in authentic Indian leather craft. Named after the legendary Kapashi region, this sandal is defined by its sharp, aerodynamically tapered toe-bed and bold structural lines—offering a sleeker, more commanding silhouette than standard rounded chappals.
​Handmade by master craftsmen, this pair is a testament to minimalist strength and intricate detail.
​Product Highlights
​The Iconic Kapashi Silhouette: Characterized by its signature sleek, subtly pointed front profile, giving it a modern, sharp edge while staying true to centuries-old design.
​Single Vadhi Craftsmanship: Utilizes a single, hand-braided leather cord (Vadhi) that structurally connects the toe-loop to the upper strap, ensuring a seamless look and unbreakable durability.
​Intricate Upper Detailing: Features a broad, commanding upper strap adorned with hand-punched geometric cutouts, gold-tone thread accents, and a vibrant red gota tassel.
​Premium Vegetable-Tanned Leather: Crafted in a deep walnut shade using artisanal leather that breathes, absorbs moisture, and custom-molds to your footprint over time.
​Artisan Guarantee: Embedded with the inner-sole "SK" mark and paired with the Sambhar Artisan Leather tag of authenticity.
​How to Style It
​Because the Kapashi shape is sleeker and more angular than traditional bulky sandals, it transitions effortlessly between worlds. It pairs flawlessly with sharp festive wear like Jodhpurs and Nehru jackets, but looks equally striking as a statement piece with slim-fit linen trousers or tailored denim.
​Artisan Note: Authentic Kapashi Kolhapuris are crafted to be robust. The premium leather will feel firm at first but will soften into a glove-like fit within 3 to 4 wears as it interacts with the natural warmth and movement of your feet.
