The significance of Punjabi juttis

There is simply no need to give introduction to the Punjabi juttis. Why? Because they are the most extensively worn footwear in India. The juttis have been the top choice of women, especially Punjabi women right from the time of maharajas to the 21st century. They grace the feet of women and even men at almost every major festival. Just name any festival, and there is ample variety of juttis available to suit the occasion.

Despite tough competition from dozens of footwear brands, there has been no downturn in the attractiveness of this particular item, mainly because of the comfort it offers. Also, to suit the taste of buyers, the Punjabi juttis have undergone a lot of changes. For daily wear, plain juttis sell like hot cakes, and for a more formal occasion, people prefer buying ones that are more vibrant and flashy.

Juttis usually drop in the slip-on style, and are made of fine leather, carefully embroided with colourful gists and beads. When worn in agreement with the dress, they provide an ethnic look and certainly enhance your personality. These days juvenile young girls wear the  Punjabi juttis with distinct dresses — from suits to jeans and skirts — to get a chic look. Moreover, when it comes to choosing footwear with kurta-pyjamas or sherwanis, these items are preffered by men as well.

One another reason for the increasing popularity of the trendy Punjabi juttis is it’s cost-effectiveness.  This footwear is available in a wide variety, ranging from Rs 150 onwards, which is in the reach of everyone. But sometimes people place orders to get them specially made to suit certain occasions, and the prices then go up to thousands of rupees.

Keeping in outlook the expanding demand of punjabi juttis by youngsters, hundreds of craftsmen are engaged in the art of making juttis in many states of India, primarily Punjab and Rajasthan. In Punjab, Malout, Muktsar and Patiala are the main centres for the manufacturing of this footwear.There is no end to the demand of these items, so the craftsmen remain busy in this trade throughout the year. In fact, these are not only in demand in india but abroad also.
