Bridlen

Bridlen is an emerging Indian shoe brand, based in Chennai, that makes Goodyear-welted men's shoes. In 1986, this brand was established by the late K. Mohamed Hasan, a leather craftsman and shoemaker, and Jose Maria Watanabe, a Japanese shoemaker. The two men's partnership combines Japanese design with Indian craftsmanship and their shared vision for quality, craft, and ethics.

Bridlen offers a wide range of shoes by line, including the Founders, Main, Shell Cordovan, and Blake lines. Their oxfords, Derbys, loafers, boots, and monk straps are some of their most famous styles of shoes. They use premium leathers and time-tested shoemaking techniques to offer their made-to-order and ready-to-wear shoes.

Their bespoke-like shoe manufacturing process uses 360° channeling and 3D upper creation, offering you factory-made shoes mixed with attention-grabbing styles. They also provide some shoe care products and accessories, including Madras leatherworks bags, belts, socks by Tabio, gift cards, and shoe care services.
