Painted Juttay

Worn byno one else.Ever.

From Rs 45,000 · 5–7 working days · Hand-painted in Pakistan

A finished hand-painted pair photographed at night

One pair.One story.One design.

Painted once, for one patron — then the design is retired. Never repeated, never reproduced.

The autonomy

The autonomy of one pair.

Panel by panel, one pair becomes its own object — not a size run, not a colourway.

  • TOE: The crease point. It flexes with every step, and the sealed layers are built to bend with it.
  • TOE BOX: The first panel a stranger reads. Smooth, honest grain — brushwork has nowhere to hide here.
  • LACE GUARD: The small shield beneath the laces, where fine detail slips under the eyelets.
  • TONGUE: Padded, ridged, always in motion. Art here has to live with movement.
  • MIDDLE: The quarter panel — the widest canvas on the shoe, where most designs begin freehand.
  • SWOOSH: Never ignored. The mark is worked around, or worked into the story.
  • MID SOLE: A clean white rail around the whole pair. One painted line here changes everything.
  • HEEL: The anchor of the silhouette. Linework wraps it without breaking stride.
  • BACK: The exit line — the last thing seen as the wearer walks away.

Your pair is
still blank.

You have seen what a finished story looks like. Yours has not been painted yet — because nobody has told us what it is.

The house rules

What we refuse to do

A Painted Juttay commission is governed by rules we never bend. They are why a pair from this atelier means something.

How to begin

Arrive with an inspiration,
or arrive with a story.

Every commission opens one of two ways — a design you’ve seen, or an idea only you carry. Both end in the same place: a pair painted by hand, once, for you.

01

Rs 45,000

Start from a piece

You have already seen it. Something in the gallery, a photo you saved, a reference you keep coming back to.

Bring it to the studio and our artists paint your version by hand — your size, your colours, your details. Related in spirit, never an identical copy.

02

From Rs 49,999

Start from your story

It does not exist yet. A memory, a person, a character, something only you can describe.

Tell us, and an artist draws it before anyone touches paint. Nothing goes to leather until the concept is yours. This becomes a design nobody else will ever wear.

Not sure yet? Start from a piece — you can change direction any time before paint.

The gallery · Asked & answered

Each of these has an owner.

Every piece below was painted once, then retired — and each frame answers the question patrons actually ask before commissioning their own.

Someone is wearing this tonight.

And nobody else ever will — the design was retired the day it found its owner.

No. 02

Is it really hand-painted?

That is pen and brush on leather, not a print. Zoom in as far as you like.

Can I actually wear them?

Sealed and waterproofed after painting. Made for streets, not shelves.

No. 04

Can I get this exact pair?

No. Each design is painted once, then retired — yours would be its own.

What does a commission cost?

A Signature pair is a flat Rs 45,000. A Bespoke piece from your own story begins at Rs 49,999, quoted after your brief.

How long does one take?

Five to seven working days from design approval. A wedding, a date to meet — tell us and we plan around it.

No. 07

Do I see the design first?

Always. Once your pair is secured, the concept reaches you before any paint touches leather — refine it as many times as you need.

In their words

The work speaks. So do its owners.

It's not just a pair of shoes, it's actual art I get to wear. Every time I wear them around Downtown QTR/DXB, people keep asking me where I got them from.

Thank you for your professionalism. Honestly, it matters more than the work itself.

Exclusive Pairs

Your first pair opens a door.

Exclusive Pairs is the house’s private room, and it is earned, not joined: commissioning your first pair is the only way in. Members see every finished pair before the public gallery does, hold first refusal on it, and commission at private member terms from then on. No bidding, no countdowns.
