Afghan Sheepskin Waistcoat Wahida

Our Afghan waistcoats are either handmade and ethically produced in Afghanistan or vintage pieces locally sourced in Afghanistan. When you buy one of our coats you are supporting local Afghan women and their communities. We work directly with an Afghan family, paying them upfront to produce authentic Afghan (waist)coats using traditional methods and style. Each coat sold directly benefits families and local communities. Afghanistan has a rich history of creating traditional and unique handcrafted clothing, we want to share this beauty and history, whilst supporting local communities. Please refer to the sizing below.

The waistcoats are made of sheepskin from a variety of local sheep breeds some of which are being upcycled. These are handmade, unique, and one-of-a-kind items. However, as each item is individually handcrafted and made with natural (upcycled) materials there may be small imperfections.
