Soul Voiced Shirts x
What to get a man for Christmas? Traditional cardigan and slippers? A dressing gown?
Or something a bit more memorable?
I had a conversation with a friend last week about African shirts..she wasn’t sure about their appeal..but I think they’re incredible..
(You’ll certainly never worry about clashing patterns again!)
They’re beyond a natty ensemble, brimmed thick with amusement and verbosity. A joy trigger and a visual conversation with an unpredictability that sits seamlessly next to regular classics.
All the pictures in this post came from the same Company..the African Shirt Company who not only offer shirts at fair prices, they’re set up to help the community that makes them in Kenya.
The aim of the African Shirt Company is to improve the lives of locals living in Kasigau, Kenya by providing them with an alternative way to earn an income.
The Company also supports a reforestation project to promote environmental education and sustainable land management in the area.
Each shirt sold also means money given back to the community to buy small seedlings for the local children which are cared for and eventually planted to maintain and restore the degraded land.
An absolute win win!
..and surely that’s what a Christmas present should really be about?

I looooovvveeee the African print
These are amazing! So vibrant! Would be perfect for festivals!!
Brilliant idea!
I love the photo of the shirt with the Gentleman wearing a fedora — feels a bit Cuban. Fun! But your Sir has to wear an African shirt with verve or it will fall flat.
Colourful, ethical, fun and stylish ! xxxx
gorgeous threads, a pressie for me I think!
Gorgeous and I would admire a gentleman striding past in these threads. But I wouldn’t take him home. I have a strange relationship with men’s fashion which I will go into over a cocktail one day.
I like it! And, having made this comment, I’m off to the site to have a nosey. I may well end up acquiring something. 🙂
Ohhh, they do look good! But but but, they look good if a man is tanned. My Hubbie is far from tanned. He can’t carry off (>.<) xxx
Very cool and interesting prints!
Awesome!
You do a great job of presenting the virtues of these!
My husband would love these and I’d borrow them!
Reblogged this on The Fashionable Rogue and commented:
Love these African shirts! Life is definitely too short to wear boring clothes! Fantastic post from Maison Bentley Style, I want one.
I love the outfit of the girl with the denim shorts.
I see Cardinal Arinze in the first picture…These are really really cool pictures of African inspired prints. Thanks for sharing
I really love this.The patterns, the prints and how they styled it. Brilliant. It doesnt hurt either that they give back to the community and nature.
These shirts have are amazing!!! African colors are so vibrant and eye catching with a very distinct color scheme it is a very bold fashion forward style for men. I can’t wait till they start making Ties in this print.
