Handcrafted Footwear Flip Flop Mojari or Jutti

Jutti: Who would have thought that the humble jutti would eventually become high fashion? A favorite of the celebrity crowd, the shoe has come a long way from its origins, as everyday footwear is a common sight in North India. Overall, there is no left or right distinction between jutti and mojari, and over time take the shape of the foot. Both are flat-soled and while Rajput women usually wear juttis, men wear mojaris. A major point of difference is the front of the shoe as shoes are mostly with flat fronts. Now many boutiques make it with plastic, acrylic, and fabric uppers. Styles are constantly evolving and while traditional designs continue, it is pop designs that are becoming more common to make it the modern go-to shoe for women.
