The ecosystem for rotary printed fabrics is complex and truly global. While it's rare to see a rotary printed textile produced in a closed-circuit, farm-to-shop supply chain, the fabrics we're producing are verifiably 100% made in Kenya. Not just traceable, but local. Not just identifiable, but ethical and accountable.

Our production impacts hundreds of smallholder farmers and their families each year. It impacts young Kenyan artists whose voices and work may now have a slightly bigger audience (and fan club:) ). It impacts the Kenyan textile manufacturing industry, which for years has been out-competed in the local market by imported fabrics. Finally, it impacts you, because you can know that your dress was made ethically, honestly, and with pride.

    Love this shirt

    Great shirt. Reversible, cute colours and comfortable to wear. My spouse likes it and I even received a compliment the first day wearing it. I am 5'8 and its a little short, but I think it's stylish at that length. I normally wear and XS in Zuri, but I ordered and XXS based on the size chart. It fit but was a little close. I think I could have sized up, but keeping it anyway since I am concerned it would be too large at the bigger size.

    The spirit of summer

    I ordered a size smaller than usual because I thought the arm openings might be too revealing. They are not - they're just right. I like both sides of this reversible top and plan to extend its summery vibe as a vest through the winter.
