About Shaan Footwear – Fashion & Trends in Kolkata
If you’re ever near Nakhuda Masjid, you’ll probably find us just across the way at No. 10 Govinda Dhar Lane. Shaan Footwear has been in this spot for years. It’s a narrow lane and it gets very crowded, especially during the festive seasons, but that’s the charm of this area. We sell all kinds of shoes, mostly the sturdy kind that people use for walking the city streets. We don't have those fancy lighted displays you see in the malls. We just stack the boxes and let people try things on. It’s a small shop, so we have to be clever with how we use the space. Sometimes the boxes are piled up nearly to the ceiling. We know most of the regular faces who pass by our door every day. It’s a loud, vibrant neighborhood and we wouldn't want to be anywhere else. We spend a lot of time talking to customers about what fits well and what lasts. We aren't experts in fashion, but we know a good pair of soles when we see them. The floor is a bit worn down from all the people coming in and out, but we think that shows we’re doing something right. We handle everything ourselves, from opening the shutters in the morning to locking up at night. It’s hard work, but it’s our work, and we take some pride in that. We don't need a lot of space to be useful to people who just need a decent pair of shoes to get around.
