Wedding Shoes for Men - Sherwani Shoes, Mojaris and Groom Footwear
The groom's footwear often gets decided last. It should be the first. At Around Always, we treat men's wedding shoes with the same level of craft and intention that goes into every bridal pair, because what the groom wears on his feet is as much a part of the story as what the bride wears on hers.
Our collection includes handcrafted mojaris for the groom, embroidered sherwani shoes in brocade and velvet, and formal wedding shoes for men who prefer a cleaner silhouette. Each style is made to order at our Kolkata studio using zardozi, mirror work, and thread embroidery techniques that reflect the full weight of Indian craft tradition.
From the baraat to the reception, from a heavy sherwani to a contemporary bandhgala, our groom shoes are designed to match every outfit and every aesthetic. Custom matching with your bride's Around Always pair is also available, making coordinated couple footwear one of our most requested services.
What Are Groom's Wedding Shoes?
Men's wedding shoes in the Indian context span several traditional styles, each with its own regional origin, silhouette, and occasion fit. Understanding the types helps you make the right choice for your outfit, your wedding format, and how long you will be wearing them.
Types of wedding shoes for men:
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Mojari for groom: Originating from Rajasthan with a curled upturned toe, the mojari was worn by Mughal royalty and is the most ceremonially formal choice. Ideal for heavy sherwanis and Jodhpuri styles.
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Jutti (Sherwani shoes): Rooted in Punjab, the jutti has a flat closed toe and a lower profile. Versatile and comfortable, it suits kurta pajama, lighter sherwanis, and Pathani suits equally well.
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Embroidered brocade shoes: A modern interpretation combining a flat formal sole with brocade or velvet uppers and zardozi detailing, popular with grooms who want traditional embellishment without a curled toe.
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Mens wedding shoes black: For the Indo-western or bandhgala groom, a clean black formal shoe with subtle thread embroidery provides a refined contemporary finish that photographs beautifully.
Why groom footwear matters more than ever:
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Wedding photography: Reels and close-up wedding shots now capture the groom head-to-toe, putting his shoes firmly in frame across every album and social post.
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Matching with the bride: Coordinated bride and groom footwear has become one of the most requested styling choices in Indian weddings, and is something Around Always specialises in.
ā¢Ā Ā Ā Comfort across a full wedding day: Grooms spend eight to twelve hours across ceremonies, pheras, and receptions. A pair built specifically for your foot makes that difference completely.
Why Grooms Choose Wedding Shoes from Around Always
Matching Pairs for You and Your Bride
Our most requested service is a coordinated pair made to complement your bride's Around Always shoes: same craft level, same colour palette, same embellishment style. It is the kind of detail that makes wedding photographs stand apart from every other couple.
Built to Your Exact Measurements
Men's feet are rarely standard, and a handcrafted shoe should not be either. We offer custom size, width, toe box, and fit adjustments on every style. Tell us your measurements and your outfit, and we build accordingly.
Craft That Belongs on a Wedding Day
Our mojaris and sherwani shoes are handcrafted using brocade, vegan leather, and hand-applied zardozi by artisans in our Kolkata studio. These are not wholesale-sourced footwear relabelled as bespoke. Every groom's pair is built from scratch, specifically for him.
How to Choose the Right Groom Shoe for Your Outfit
For a Heavy Sherwani or Jodhpuri Suit
A contemporary mojari for groom is the natural complement to a heavy sherwani. Choose gold, ivory, or a deep jewel tone depending on your sherwani colour.
For Kurta Pajama or Dhoti
An embroidered brocade shoe works best with lighter outfits. The flatter silhouette does not overpower a simpler kurta and allows the embroidery on the fabric to remain the focal point. Tonal colour matching or a subtle contrast both work well here.
For Indo-Western and Bandhgala Outfits
Mens wedding shoes black in a low-profile embroidered style, or a clean brocade slip-on, complements the contemporary groom perfectly. Keep the footwear refined rather than ornate to balance the modern cut of the jacket.
