Sankore is a unique top for boys to men. A stunning design mixing bazin, purple kente and premium linen. So this design blends three types of fabric but it looks like one integrated fluid design. With a placket optional collar and cuffs. This top is finished just above the knee and is longer than standard Ocacia Dashiki tops. A beautiful addition for that African evening or special occasion or just rocking with some Ocacia Afro-Jeans. EXACT SHADE OF BAZIN VARIES
Please note for kids sizes you have to email us your measurements and age after purchase. Please note this is a very rare design due to the fabric used. Once our stocks are exhausted we will not be able to make this top since these prints are no longer made.
