Çaplait is a contemporary footwear brand, firmly rooted in Pakistani culture.Inspired by the Peshawari Chappal, a traditional men\'s sandal from the Peshawar region of Pakistan, we draw upon the talents of local artisans in order to create every pair of sandals. Çaplait respects and repays its heritage at every turn, right down to the name (pronounced ‘Saplay’) which nods to the handle given to the shoes by locals.All of our shoes are handmade by artisans, preserving a craft which has been passed between generations, to provide fair pay and ethical working conditions for the artisans around whom the brand is built.
