Tagged from Face Book

I am glad I did not get to be-friend every Tom, Dick and Harry when building a profile on Facebook, as it turns out, at least for me, nothing feels more lovely than when you open up your FB profile and check out a post on your timeline coming from a recognisable friend, and reads " Ma Sistren Nis rocking Rafiki Threads, blessings - at Mina fish Market, Abu Dhabi  — at Mina Fish Market, Abu Dhabi  "

So thats how the week began and through it all its been a roller coaster getting the brand on its feet, I believe this is the right time to get a Blog rolling that will help solidify.

First ever post, ENJOY!

Earlier in the month I was lucky to get a photoshoot done with the same T-shirt that is now making circuits, my model: Xjiro, Photographer: Jothee Kiiru, facilitated by Myndz Community.

The fabric is known as a Kikwebe that originates from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) previously known as Zaire which is  a central country in Africa. We fuse the fabric with a  100% Jersey cotton, black in color and is now only available in Medium (UK) Size for ladies.

The t-shirt goes well with darker bottoms, but has the capacity to try out even fancier looks especially if going out for one of those "cocktail parties ' perhaps a a solid color over half coat or even the infamous navy blue jeans, try it out and tag us on FB lets see.. :) 

The Rafiki Threads Brand

Rafiki Threads was formed in May 2013 from a passion for fashion that is truly African. The label operates from Nairobi. Rafiki Threads is proud of its principled status which ensures that sourcing of all its materials and products is done from local and regional (African: Uganda, Tanzania & Ghana) traders and stockists. Production is done in Nairobi, Kenya thus encouraging local trade and employment.

Our first instalment is the Kitenge T-shirts where we specialise in trendy plain T-shirts emblazoned with African print fabric
