Ajrak Espadrilles

Full of history and culture, Ajrak are block printed cloths of symmetrical patterns, mostly in dark crimson red, indigo blue and unprinted white motifs. Due to this characteristic, Ajrak is believe to be derived from "Azrak", meaning blue. This age-old craft can be traced back to approximately 2500 BCE of the civilizations in the Indus Valley. The subcontinent developed the technology of dyeing and patterning of fabric and the well known 'Priest-King' stone statue is believe to be wearing an Ajrak.
