Rajasthan has a rich and long tradition of leather
crafts. Each village had its families of leather
workers. The juti, mojari or pagarkhi are leather shoes
and slippers worn by both men and women of all
communities. The mojari is tanned with vegetable dye and
has excellent thermal insulation quality. The process of
production starts with cutting the leather with a sharp
knife both for the upper and the sole. Stuck together
with home made glue, they are stitched with cotton or
leather thread. The upper is then embroidered by the
women whose finesse as they embroider these shoes is a
treat to watch. The embroidery is done directly on
leather using cotton, silk or wool threads depending on
the material used for the upper surface. Bright colors,
traditional motifs and contemporary designs are the
primary themes. The stitching is finally strengthened by
hammering. Beads and appliqué works are also becoming
very popular. Actual gemstones are no longer used as
they were used once.

The most common male attire consists of the dhoti and
kurta, worn in most of the western and central regions.
A sherwani is typically worn for special occasions. Men
of northern India and the Punjab may also wear salwar
kameez, often in plain white cotton, and top the kameez
with a dark waistcoat. The lungi (a type of wrap-around)
is worn in many parts of India, but depending on the
social practices of the region it may be restricted to
indoor-wear.
