Made using ‘fugu’ fabric from the Upper West region of Ghana, this shirt was handmade in our studio in Accra with love.
History has it that fugu was introduced into Ghana by the Moshies who migrated from Burkina Faso and settled in the northern part of the country & the Hausas from northern Nigeria. Women in the North later used the local cotton to make threads, which were woven as Fugu for all genders & people. Fugu means ‘cloth’ in Moshie language. The Dagombas call it Bingba, while people from the south often refer to it as Batakari.
- wooden Buttons

- Model is 6'5 and wears a size L
Sizing
Pick a size between XS - 3XL or add a note or request at 'contact seller' with exact preferred measurements and we've got you.

love love love this cloak & super happy to have finally got my hands on it! looks as amazing as in the photos, feels cosy and arrived THREE whole days ahead of schedule. fully satisfied as always with tribes <3
Exceeded my expectations on so many levels! Ahead of placing my order, it was made clear that it would arrive a month later as Cisse, being so popular was a pre-order item. My package came through much earlier than expected. Given that other items I'd bought are still en-route, yet had no time warning, I've really been impressed by this seller!
On the products, Cisse is a more tribal print and more raw - that's beautiful but I find it less functional for being so heavy. It's better for nights especially in Africa where the weather is mostly warm.
The second piece, I really love! It's lighter so it falls better on the body & it will definitely be worn more in this climate! It's print is not as raw as the Cisse, so it can also be worn to work without appearing too casual. It shocked me that I loved it so much as I bought it just because it was a last piece and I couldn't decide which I was drawn to more. I'd recommend this seller for being so professional and of course for the priceless pieces!
Very happy with this purchase. Fast shipping, got it sooner than I thought. I really like this bogolan cape. I will make new purchases from you without hesitation. (- ^ _ ^ -) Thank you!
Très contente de cet achat.
Envoi rapide, je l'ai reçu plus tôt que je le pensais.
J'aime beaucoup cette cape bogolan.
Je ferai de nouveaux achats chez vous sans hésitation. (-^_^-)
Merci !
It was very good shipping was fast packaging was cute. I was upset about the black mark on the hoodie part. I love it to much to send back but that was annoying it’s to expensive to have stains .
I recently moved to the mountains where it’s colder and this cloak has been my best friend! Keeping me warm through out the day! It’s so comfortable!! Worth every penny! Shipping was faster than I thought to Hawaii from Africa. I really appreciate this craft soul much! It was a special birthday gift for myself. Going to buy another soon! With love ~vonna jane
Discovered Threaded Tribes on my final night when visiting family in Ghana for Year of Return. I regretted not buying this cloak when I saw it while browsing the Kempinski Hotel pop up. Thus, I was VERY delighted when it was back in stock online. Love the cloak, the quality and the service. 5 stars all the way!

At ANKA, we do not believe in the myth of predefined sizes. Each body is different and deserves an outfit just as unique. Therefore, to use this guide, we recommend using your measurements in inches (as explained below) rather than the "4 to 22" sizes.
From there you can select the corresponding international size for your order, and each seller will then be able to make sure to send the PERFECT fit for YOU!
