The Peruvian "Huaracas de Lampa" Sling
Price: $20; Availability: 5
 
These slings are the real thing at a terrific price. They are hand made out of natural Alpaca wool without the use of dyes in the town of Lampa in Peru's Southern Andean mountains. Every sling is completely different. They have a split pouch optimized to hold an object the size of a golf ball or walnut. There is a finger hole on one end and a small tuft of wool on the other end for an ultra-quiet release. Total length is about 160 cm. Total weight is approximately 55 grams. Locally they are called "Huaracas" or "Huaracas de Lampa".
