Pradeep, Jeengar artisan
Made by Pradeep

A slim sling has nowhere to hide a flaw — every line and stitch shows. Pradeep, our master of clean, architectural leathercraft, cuts and hand-stitches each Sojat Sling from sun-tanned hides, setting the button and strap true. Your purchase pays Pradeep in full, upfront, keeping a 500-year craft alive.

maker’s signature

Named for Sojat — the desert town in the Marwar heartland whose henna stains the hands of brides across the world, a craft of patient, unhurried detail handed down through generations.

A clean, stripped-back sling in its purest form — slim against the body and built to hold its shape for years. Crafted from sun-tanned certified real leather that earns a richer patina with wear, closed with a single hand-set artisan button.

Certified Real Leather, tested by the Hohenstein Institute, Germany. Hand-finished by our artisan Pradeep — paid in full, upfront, before this piece ever found its way to you.

The hides are tanned with babul bark, then worked and laid out to cure by hand. It is the slow way, and the reason the leather softens with age instead of cracking.
