Origins & Heritage

From the Swahili Coast

Woven for centuries along the East African coast, the Kikoi is a vibrant symbol of Swahili identity. Its bright stripes and durable cotton reflect centuries of trade and cultural exchange between African, Arab, and Indian traditions.

Craft & Culture

Crafted with Care

Each Kikoi is handwoven on traditional looms, using cotton and natural dyes to create bold colours and stripes. More than fabric, it’s a garment for everyday life and special occasions — worn as a wrap, shawl, scarf, or even a baby carrier.

Modern Versatility

Timeless & Versatile

Light, breathable, and endlessly adaptable, the Kikoi has become a modern staple beyond East Africa. Use it as a beach wrap, towel, throw, or stylish scarf — every Kikoi carries the heritage of the Swahili coast into today’s lifestyle.
