I want to confirm I have just recieved the sling (will post picture later on), its very nice, and looks well made... the packaging was great, stamps are beautiful but next time no tape Sad ruins the stamps... nice pattern and hopefully made by a beautiful young tibetan virgin... as I believe it makes the sling better that way  Wink

Thanks for your feedback.  I do have to disappoint you, I guess, because slings are in most cases made by the Tibetan man.  Sad
Women do most of the spinning and weaving.

I got three of these in the post today. Smiley

They are very well made. My only issue is the release cord is too long on all three, by more than a couple of inches. I'm not sure how to proceed with shortening it without ruining the braid.

Other than that though, excellent!  Grin

If it's thick enough you, maybe you're supposed to grip it at the braid itself, like a balearic sling.
I could be wrong though.  Undecided

How long are they?

We just received a new collection of the Tibetan slings, so we have plenty in stock.

We are about to ship another 10 slings to Germany today.

Also, a documentary about us was made and broadcast by the Chinese National TV. You can watch it here online:

I am having  issues with the website.  It won't recognize  my email  address, so I can't put an order in

Hi there Ryan,
You probably have figured it out, because I have received your order of two slings without any issues,

Wow! They look beautiful! Shame no shipping to Finland at least as far as I can tell from the website.
