Christmas Gift Guide: Why Kente Cloth is the ultimate gift to give this season

Kente Cloth is loved for several reasons and for many, Christmas is the ultimate time to show off their latest Kente designs. At Kente Kingdom we’re here to show you 10 reasons why this cloth, is the ultimate gift to present your loved ones this Christmas season.

  1. It’s timeless - Kente is not defined by times and seasons. It never goes out of style so give a gift that’s always trending. Give a gift that can be worn year after year, season after season, no matter the occasion- give a gift that’s always in fashion.

  2. It’s unisex - Both men and women can wear Kente in any colour or design. There are no limits to your style and creativity when you buy Kente Cloth.

  3. It’s Age appropriate - No matter the recipients age, Kente is made for all. It does not discriminate so cheers to a simple, and stress-free gift giving experience. Shop Kente gift sets here.

  4. Suitable in all weathers - Kente is an all season garment and cloth. It can be worn all year round either as a traditional garment, or sewn into a piece of clothing. So whether it’s summer or winter, there’s a Kente design out there for you.

  5. It’s stylish, versatile and multifunctional - A Kente stole doubles as a graduation stole, scarf or head wrap. Kente in its cloth state, can also be worn as a traditional garment or sewn into an outfit of choice. This means there’s infinite style opportunities when you purchase your handwoven Kente. Visit our Design Library for style inspiration and pre-order your cloth through our Cloth Production Service - COMMISSIONED.

  6. It’s coded - Kente is full of hidden meaning both in colour and pattern. Commissioning your very own cloth allows you to get creative whilst capturing a hidden meaning or message into your custom made fabric. So what are you waiting for??? Get creative this Christmas, and commission a unique cloth coded with sentimental meaning that’s personal to you or the recipient.

  7. It’s sentimental - This follows on from our previous points. Kente is passed down from generation to generation so naturally, the hidden messages, stories and historical events are retold when passed from one family member to another. This is why at Kente Kingdom we always say ‘you don’t just buy Kente, you keep it for the next generation’.

  8. Vintage, durable and sustainable - We encourage you to reuse, repurpose or recycle fashion whenever you can. That’s why passing Kente down from one generation to the next makes it a great sustainable gif toot. For those who want to do away with fast fashion, authentic Kente is the perfect gift because you can consider the environment in your own little way. Choose genuine Kente over mass produced Kente prints because handwoven Kente always wins.

  9. A luxuriously royal gift - A piece of genuine handwoven Kente gives you an authentic African royal experience. Once solely a royal cloth, handwoven Kente is the only gift that’ll give you a tangible lustre of an ancient royal fabric transcended through the 21st Century. What more could you want in a Christmas present?

  10. Who made my cloth? - Authentic Kente is not mass produced using heavy machinery in a textiles factory or sweatshop. Unlike that of cheap imitation prints, you’ll get an authentic cloth handwoven by skillful indigenous weavers directly from Ghana. This is not just the best of Ghana, at Kente Kingdom, we guarantee a luxurious royal cloth with a personal touch - a thoughtful yet ethical conscious gift.
