Focus on leather

Skin Graft Designs




Ayya Wear. They make a small selection of clothes and also some great boots. But their piece de resistance is their ninja tabi boots:



Available in a lovely range of colours and they also do custom made. They are truly absolutely amazing. Tabi (or jika-tabi) were apparently worn by Ninja in Japan, though this is debatable. They are very popular today with Japanese construction workers because of the split-toe enabling them to have greater dexterity with their feet.



A wonderful steampunk Flight Helmet by Wild Card Collection





A tribal pocket belt by Yasuyuki Ishii




Beautiful leather designs by Asli Designs. Slightly fairy-esque designs, but without being too delicate about it, and with a big dollop of tribal.

There is, of course, many more gorgeous leather designs I could post here, so I'll save them up for a series of leather posts.
