About women's leather shoes
Women's footwear is made in the same Indian clusters as the men's range, with the Chennai, Ambur and Vaniyambadi factories in Tamil Nadu known for large export production of women's and men's leather footwear alongside Agra.
Women's styles need careful last and size-run work. Samples are developed to your pattern or taken from a maker's range, and fit is confirmed on samples before production.
