The Indian footwear market is segmented between organized and unorganized segment. The organized segment caters to about 1/3rd of the market while the rest 2/3rd is fetched by small unorganized players. India is the second largest producer of footwear next to China. The organized sector is represented by major domestic and international players like Bata, Liberty, Adidas, Metro etc and the unorganized comprises of small cottage industry based manufacturers. So the majority of Indian footwear industry is dominated by small and medium scale enterprises. These firms also include the subcontractors or assemblers of the bigger manufacturers. As subcontractors or assemblers, these small and medium size firms put together parts of the shoe such as the uppers, or parts of the components such as the toe puffs, counters and top lifts. The purpose of this paper is to review the areas where the current footwear material can significantly affect the way of footwear sector is practiced, and also we will discuss the implementation.
