91-Year-Old Shoe Shop Balances Heritage and Survival

In a small corner of Marine Lines, Mumbai, there's a very old shoe shop called Mane Shoe Mart.

It's been making special leather shoes by hand for 91 years.

The shop was started by Rajaram Bala Mane and his brothers in 1935.

Back then, many people loved these handmade shoes.

Now, Ankush Mane, the third-generation owner, runs the shop.

He says fewer people want heavy, expensive leather shoes these days.

But the shop still has loyal customers who love their handmade shoes.

There's only one craftsman left, Mohfeed, who makes each pair of shoes from scratch.

It takes him 3 to 4 days to make one pair.

The shop also sells cheaper, lighter shoes now, but they still make their special leather shoes for those who love them.
