Looking for Ink that could be used on leather

One of my customers asked me if this can be screen printed.
It is a leather strap for a life vest.
Not sure is the regular plastisol can be used or something that is air dry.
Thanks

I would bet that plastisol would not hold up. Nazdar recommends either 9600 Polyester Ink or 7200 Lacquer ink.
Here someone asks Nazdar about printing on a leather jacket.

I also wonder if pad printing with an appropriate ink is not an option on the seemingly small print in your case.

Hot stamping might be a better method of printing on leather.....

We pad print this sort of application with Printcolor Series 660 and get excellent results.
