More about Iron Dyed Leather

Every pair is dyed by hand in a simple process using water + iron. The myrobalan in our leather reacts with iron for a colorfast black, which won’t rub off on your feet or fade over time.

Iron-dyed shoes can be easily re-conditioned at home to restore the deepest black; some natural variation in color tone is to be expected.

• Natural iron-dye process: nothing synthetic, no hard-to-pronounce chemicals
• Colorfast black won’t rub off on feet
• Full-grain water buffalo leather molds to your feet over time for the perfect fit
• Cushioned footbed
• Soft leather lining
• Stacked leather midsole
• Durable, grippy crepe rubber sole
• Styles with a back are great for long days of exploring

How to break them in: 

At first, your shoes may feel stiff or too tight. The break-in is a sign of quality shoes and handmade leather.

Get a pair of socks wet, then wring them out. Wear them with your shoes around the house for a few minutes (not too long). OR – get your bare feet wet then wear them for 30 minutes. 

Once broken in, these are soft as butter and mold to your feet. 

Mohinders Story

Mohinders partners with third-generation master shoemakers in Athani, India to bring timeless style to the modern world. Due to their heritage, they're made using natural processes that are inherently sustainable and non-toxic. 

Using 37 steps, artisans bind the shoe with a braid-like stitch, removing the need for chemical glues, while water buffalo leather is naturally dyed using 3 things: tree bark, nuts, and water.
