Afsan Leather

Afsan Leather is located at 22/1b Shamsul Huda Road. We’ve been in this neighborhood for a while now, and the shop has become a bit of a second home for us. It’s not a fancy place by any means. When you walk in, you’ll mostly see stacks of leather hides and some old machines we use for cutting and stitching. The smell of the leather is the first thing you notice, and it stays with you. We spend our days mostly at the workbenches, trying to get the edges right or fixing a machine that’s acting up again. It’s physical work and our hands usually show it by the end of the week. We don’t have a big team, just a few of us who know the trade. The lighting at 22/1b isn't the best, but we’ve got used to it. Sometimes the road outside gets really noisy with traffic, but we just keep our heads down and focus on what’s in front of us. We aren't trying to be some big corporate brand. We just make things out of leather and hope they last a long time for whoever buys them. It’s a simple way to make a living, honestly. We don’t do much advertising; mostly it’s just people walking by or hearing about us from someone else. We keep the scrap pieces in a bin for smaller jobs. Every day is pretty much the same, but that’s alright with us.
