The Serengeti is renowned for its diverse wildlife. Particularly in the early morning hours during the dry season, many different inhabitants of the savannah make their way to the waterhole and stand shoulder to shoulder, just like on our SERENGETI T-shirt. The designs have been created since 2009 at various schools in Tanzania and Kenya and thus represent a small ‘best of’ selection of our motifs.
A T-shirt design that literally stands head and shoulders above the rest. This is our TWIGA giraffe – Tanzania’s national animal. Our little Twiga was created in 2014 at a school in Arusha, Tanzania, and is as unique as every spot on a giraffe’s coat. The design came about whilst the animals of the Serengeti were being discussed in a natural history lesson. The beautiful ochre shade of the print harmonises beautifully with the Marsala T-shirt, which is reminiscent of the Tanzanian savannah.
A true classic amongst our designs is our ELEPANT – let us correct that: ELEPHANT. The spelling mistake that crept into this lovely design from 2011 was carried over directly onto the T-shirt and remains one of our most popular designs to this day. Thanks to this design (alongside others), school fees have been paid, a new kitchen block has been built and a computer room has been set up in Arusha, Tanzania, over the last few years.
Is it a river hippo, or perhaps more of a honey cake horse? Given the broad grin on our HIPPO’s face (Kiswahili for ‘Kiboko’), this question might well spring to mind, as this little creature looks like the complete opposite of one of Africa’s most dangerous animals. A real Happy Hippo, in fact!
