NDUTHI EXPRESS
Before the flashing lights, graffiti art, and booming speakers of today’s 'pararira, nganya' matatus, there was the legendary 'Face Me' pickup matatu, a true Kenyan OG.
Named for its seat arrangement, where passengers sat facing each other, these matatus weren’t for the faint-hearted. If the seats were full? You stood. Well, more like bent over each other, navigating the awkward balance of space and human contact and body odour . It was chaotic, uncomfortable, and absolutely iconic in its own way.
Though we’re glad they retired, we can’t deny their role in moving the masses, creating stories, and being part of Kenya’s transport evolution. This tote is a tribute to the matatu that came before the madness of nganya culture.

ANOINTED KINYOZI
African kinyozis are nothing short of legendary—from fresh fades to the infamous 'Jesus Take the Wheel' cut (come ask me about that one 😆). But just as iconic as the barbers themselves are the signwriters who bless these shops with their unmistakable hand-painted calligraphy and portraits that kinda look like they went for a few art classes but were too OG to finish.
This tote is a celebration of both; the hands that shape the cuts and the artists who make sure the world knows where to get them. This tote is built for those who appreciate street artistry, sharp trims, and the unmatched vibe of a proper African kinyozi. Because a fresh cut and a well-painted sign go hand in hand like boflo (bread) and margarine.
