Product Details
If you have spent any time on the African Continent, it's likely you would have admired local Men and Women dressed in custom made, stunning batiki outfits. East African produced batiki is incredibly distinct, featuring combinations of vibrant colours carrying striking patterns. Every design is unique as they are hand printed, and each colour is hand mixed and fabrics are overdyed multiple times to create unique colour mixes. This batiki has been produced in an incredible outdoor kitchen, heated and mixed in barrels over fires, and is made with beautifully fine cotton fabric and richly coloured dyes.
Our collection of hand stamped and hand dyed Batiki is crafted in Tanga, . By establishing a store in Dar es Salaam, we are not only an export company but we have created sustainable employment and training opportunities for a local team.
Shirt measurements available, please contact us for details.
