Footprints along a sandy Lamu beach with a dhow near the shore.

our story

The Lamu Collection began with lost luggage on Lamu Island. Building a wardrobe from scratch led us to discover easy shirts, soft linen, handmade sandals and distinctive accessories. We fell in love with the island’s style and the people behind it.

Today, that spirit shapes our collection: relaxed clothing, colorful accessories and pieces that bring a little of Lamu into everyday life. Our studios in Nairobi and Cape Town connect the collection to the hands that make it.

From our stores in South Africa and Spain to our restaurant in Franschhoek, we share the same love of craft, color and unhurried living.
