Prada has refuted claims of violating Geographical Indication (GI) rights linked to Kolhapuri chappals after showcasing sandals inspired by the traditional Indian footwear. The luxury fashion house responded to a legal notice from LIDKAR, asserting that their sandals were simply described as 'leather sandals' without any reference to the Kolhapuri region or techniques.
