Yeah I'm thinking about the belts and other stuff you see decorate the khamiis of people like Sultan Diinle

Somalis throughout history had a vibrant sandle/shoe and leather product making industry which they ended up spreading to the northern swahili coastal settlements as well. Bags, pouches, belts , hand bags and book covers etc

During the Kacaan period they tried to expand on it and make them into luxury items.

See the first minute of this video. Mentions bones, metal, ivory, wood carvings and even stone cutting. Alongside leatherwork with sandals and pouches etc They show a couple of those sandals being sold by traditional craftsmen.
