Manipur is famous for its special fabrics like moiraingphee, leirum, lasingphee and phanek. Tribal textiles are woven on a loin-loom, a type of back-strap loom commonly used by hill people.
Naga textiles are traditionally all woven on the back strap loom in handspun cotton, eri silk or indigenous nettle and bark fibres, although today the majority of textiles are woven in acrylic wool from the local market.
