[ N'DONSO™ // LONG SLEEVE CROP ]
A cropped long-sleeve top in the Uhie Red colorway — the N'Donso™ print in red over a black ground, with raglan sleeves and a wide, double-layered waistband.
N'Donso means my hunter. In the Mande world of Mali, Guinea, Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire, the donso were the hunters' brotherhood. They knew the bush and its medicine, and they walked out first so the people behind them knew the way. The print takes its motifs from that road and from the raffia cloth of the Kuba kingdom: zigzag columns for the path, linked rings for the brotherhood, and nested triangles for the marks a hunter leaves to find his way home.
Layer it over the N'Donso™ Longline Bra, or wear it with the Flare Leggings for the full set. Uhie Red is the second N'Donso™ colorway, after Eze Pink.
