Meet our production partner, SOKO Kenya! Based in Kikambala on the Kenyan coast, they are an ethical manufacturer that truly embraces a fair, kind and transparent work culture. In addition to paying above living wages, SOKO Kenya provides employees with paid leave and stipends for family emergencies, free pre-primary childcare for all employees with children from ages 2-4, daily mid-morning tea and midday lunch, and clear, outlined processes for job advancement. These values extend to the workspace itself, which is open, airy and bright. It’s truly a privilege to work with the SOKO Kenya team, and we invite you to learn more about the stitching process here!

We work with an incredible network of fabric vendors in Dar es Salaam and Nairobi to source textiles. Over the years and many hundreds of prints, we've learned a lot about how to select fabrics. We truly have these women to thank for sharing their knowledge and trust, and in doing so, creating such a mutually supportive experience. Learn more about our process and our vendors here!

    Unexpectedly Pink! And Very Soft

    Up close this dress appears navy, red, and white (someone said it reminded them of July 4th—I disagree). However, the overall effect is PINK! (These photos only show the close-up view of the pattern.) I love wearing pink, and Knitty Gritty has joined my repertoire of pink Zuri dresses.

    Pretty Pink

    I’ve been looking for a pink dress for a while and nothing tickled my fancy. Nitty Gritty came along and I thought about it for a bit before I pounced, but it wasn’t until I wore it the first time that I realized that this was the pink dress that I had been waiting for. Up close it has quite a lot of red, but all those little white dots turn the overall effect onto pink. The fabric is soft and pretty lightweight and it layers well in winter and is going to be terrifically comfortable in summer.

    So much visual texture!

    I really love Knitty Gritty! The fabric is on the sturdier side and the design gives a feel of depth and texture. The colors lend themselves to many possibilities for coordinating outfits in different ways. The sleeves on my size (large) seem a bit narrower than on my other Zuri dresses.

    Glad I succumbed

    I waited a long time on this dress but now am glad that I finally bought it. Fun to pick up the pink pattern in the dress & you can really change the look by playing around with different accessories which make it look pinker, more navy or even red.
