BABY-TURTLE Children’s T-shirt, Midnight Blue

Product information "BABY-TURTLE Children’s T-shirt, Midnight Blue"

Our BABY-TURTLE design was created during a perfectly ordinary school day in Watamu, Kenya, one of Africa’s oldest marine protected areas. There, the local organisation ‘Bahari Hai’ (Swahili for ‘Living Ocean’) educates schoolchildren about marine conservation projects, such as the protection of sea turtles. It was during one such school lesson that the drawing of a tiny sea turtle just hatching from its nest was created. By buying this special T-shirt, you’re supporting the vital work of our partner organisation, Bahari Hai, to protect these remarkable animals.

Did you know

We chose the colour midnight blue for this T-shirt because the moon – or rather, the moon’s reflection on the sea – serves as a guide for the newly hatched sea turtles on their journey to the ocean. The pocket made from Kitenge fabric symbolises the waves of the ocean.

Production

Like every Kipepeo T-shirt, the Baby Turtle T-shirt is produced over a distance of just 600 km by owner-run family businesses in Tanzania and Kenya: the organically grown cotton is cultivated in Singida (Tanzania) on small-scale rain-fed farms, without artificial irrigation, and is harvested by hand. In Tanzania, this cotton is knitted into a high-quality, slightly heavier jersey fabric and dyed to our specifications in a rich midnight blue shade. The fabric is then transformed into a handcrafted, high-quality T-shirt in our small sewing workshop in Nairobi, where it is cut, sewn and printed by hand using water-based screen-printing inks.

NYANI Women’s T-shirt, Black
NYANI Women’s T-shirt, Black

The little monkey NYANI jumps out of a fabric pouch made from traditional Kitenge fabric, which contrasts sharply with the T-shirt. The NYANI motif was first created back in 2014 during a natural history lesson at a school in Tanzania, whilst the animals of the Serengeti were being discussed. This motif is a permanent feature of our collection, even though the design of the breast pocket changes from time to time.
