For the man who belongs to two worlds.
When I flew to Nigeria for the funeral of Akin's grandfather, the tailor arrived at the house in the middle of the grief. She opened her notebook, took measurements — and a few days later, at the funeral celebration — which in Nigeria is always also a celebration of life — the fabrics carried meaning. Who belonged to the closest family, who to the extended.
I'm Lisa, born in Munich. I've been living with Akin for 8 years — he grew up in Oyo, works today in a corporate environment in Munich, and wears what everyone there wears: the international business look. Every family visit, I bring Ankara prints back home — vivid, full of meaning. In Munich, they sit without a place. Not forgotten. Just without a home.
That question became AKINLOYE. A premium shirt in European tailoring. At the cuffs and collar lining: handpicked Ankara fabric. Meaningful. Unmistakable.
"A garment that carries two complete worlds —
without either one giving up the other."
We use only the finest cotton fabrics. At the collar lining and cuffs: handpicked Ankara prints — worn in Oyo for generations at the most important moments in life.
