Repair the chappal before it splits fully
The mochi charges very little to restitch a sole that is starting to separate, and almost nothing to replace a strap. Once it splits through, the whole pair is gone. Ten minutes now, a new pair saved.

Strap popped out of the sole mid-market? Push a safety pin through the strap and the base and clip it underneath. Gets you home, and honestly some people never fix it properly after that.
Geeli chhat par ghisi chappal sabse bada khatra hai. Nange paon ya achhi grip wale joote — girne ke baad pachhtane se behtar hai.
Fold a rubber slipper, cut it to thickness, wedge it under the short leg. It grips the floor better than folded paper and does not compress over time. The most-deployed jugaad in India.
तला उखड़ना शुरू हो तभी मोची को दिखा दो — बहुत कम पैसे में सिल जाता है। पूरा फट जाने के बाद पूरी जोड़ी बेकार हो जाती है।
चिकनी हो चुकी चप्पल के तले को सैंडपेपर या खुरदरी दीवार पर रगड़ो। पकड़ वापस आ जाती है। गीले फर्श पर फिसलने से बचाता है।
That is all 6 of them. बस, इतना ही।
