Hiro+Wolf Dog Bandana: ShweShwe Navy Circles

Bold and vibrant bandanas are sure to turn heads. Official Hiro + Wolf bandanas are individually hand cut and sewn.

Handmade in the UK.

Not all fabrics are cut from the same cloth and Shwe Shwe is certainly one of a kind. This stunning printed cotton fabric is widely used for South African clothing, so much so that it is often referred to as the “denim” of Africa. Shwe Shwe is traditionally used to make dresses, skirts, aprons, and wrap-around clothing. It is traditionally worn by newly married Xhosa women (known as Makoti) and married Sotho women.

 Easy to wear. Simply slide your favourite collar through the elastic loop fitted on the back of the bow tie.

Care instructions: easy cleaning by wiping down with warm water and mild soap, and drying thoroughly.

We are thrilled to feature Hiro and Wolf, a brand which devotes itself to fair trade in East Africa, by engaging the Bombolulu workshop, a non-profit organization and a member of the World Trade Organization. The brand works with the physically disabled artisans in crafting jewellery, textile and leather products, by paying them a fair price. The regular income the artisans received not only empower them socially and economically, it supports the community, keeping them away from illegal poaching, thus protecting the environment and wild life in the area.
