Weavers Shoes

Our shop, Weavers Shoes, is located at 18 Khandari Colony right on Master Plan Road. It’s easy to miss if you aren’t looking for it. The smell of leather is the first thing you notice when you walk in. We’ve got shelves lining the walls, filled with all kinds of footwear. It’s not just a business; it’s what we do every day. We spend a lot of time looking at soles and stitching. My father started this, and I just sort of took over. We see a lot of people from the colony coming in for repairs or new pairs. The road outside is always busy, so there’s a lot of dust. We spend a fair bit of time dusting the boxes. We don't have a computer system or anything like that. Everything is written down in a big book. Sometimes it’s hard to find the right size in the back room because it’s so crowded. But we usually manage. We like talking to the customers about what they need. It’s better than just selling something off a shelf. Some days it’s just us and the radio playing in the background. It gets quiet in the afternoons before the evening rush. We don't need much more than a good pair of pliers and some strong thread. It’s honest work, and it keeps us busy through the seasons.
