Not only men or kids shoes are in demand. Many females and teen ager girls can be seen at shops.
"My exams are going on and I cannot visit exam centre with the kinds of shoes I have at home. So, therefore, I told my brother to get one of the winter shoes for me as soon as possible as I feel winter is going to be tough", said Masrat, a student.
Meanwhile, the rates of winter shoes vary from 500 to 1000 rupees. While as, the shopkeepers are running out of the stock with huge demand of winter shoes from people across the region.
