Vhaan is India’s leading brand for authentic Kolhapuri chappals and handcrafted leather goods, preserving an 800-year-old artisan tradition while blending it with modern functionality. Specialising in pure leather Kolhapuri sandals for men and women alongside RFID-protected wallets, card holders, and belts, Vhaan sources ethically from skilled Kolhapur craftsmen using vegetable-tanned, hand-dyed leather for unmatched comfort and durability.
Vhaan empowers artisans by cutting out middlemen, offering free pan-India shipping, and positioning Kolhapuris as timeless footwear that pairs with casual, ethnic, or festive outfits. The brand’s mission: rejuvenate the real story of Kolhapuri craft, making it accessible to millions who value heritage without compromise.
Founded to celebrate ethnic craftsmanship, Vhaan revives the authentic art of Kolhapuri chappal-making, which dates back over 800 years to the Kolhapur region in Maharashtra. Unlike mass-produced versions, Vhaan works directly with artisan networks for hand-stitched, GI-tagged designs in premium leather, ensuring sustainability, ethical production, and superior quality.
