Prada has launched its limited-edition sandals, inspired by traditional Kolhapuri sandals from India. This development comes after a year of the luxury brand facing criticism for debuting their Kolhapuri-like sandals at Milan Fashion Week. The brand has commented on the new limited-edition sandals. They are of the opinion that the sandals have been manufactured in India by artisans from the states of Maharashtra and Karnataka. While they were previously calling the footwear "leather sandals," they now seem to have acknowledged the Indian roots of the footwear.
