| - Pulhoer, variously spelled pulhoor, pulhord, pulhour, or pulhor, is an ancient traditional straw footwear of Kashmir, bearing similarities withchappal sandals or slippers. One type of traditional kashmiri straw footwear is also known as khraav. The shoes were/ are homemade by Kashmir artisans by weaving straw rope in a particular manner. They were widely used by Kashmiris in ancient times especially during winter season. The pulhoer straw footwear was one of the traditional tools for dealing with the cold of Kashmir's winter, like (still are) also the kanger, the portable heating-pot, and the coatlike garment pheran. They were primarily used by people to protect their feet from snow due to poverty and unavailability of modern footwear in the region, but since there was a lack of modern garments, people also used them for protection against thorny bushes and pebbles in forests; however they are unstable or unusable in the rainy season due to flow of rain through their pores.
