Continent Clothing
We Are A Brand With A Purpose. We Aim To Make The Most Colourful And Comfy Clothing Possible And Pro And I love clothes. So I guess I should have seen it coming.
The Story
I love the tropics – the sun and the sea, the people and the food, chilling in the warmth. It all started with a pair of trousers from The Gambia. They looked like Africa feels: sunny, alive, vibrant with colour. And they were ridiculously comfy. I wore them all the time, everywhere – at home, Uni, parties, slobbing out, in the park, on the beach. (I saved a lot of money on trousers). P

The Women’s initiative’s story is beautiful. A tale of dreams come true, overcoming inherent challenges and obstacles along the way.
“She faced 3 challenges to her dream, she was young, she was small, and she was from a poor family. Yet none of that stopped her. Now because of her, some of the next generation can follow their dreams”Isatou
The Women’s Initiative was founded and ran by the inspirational Isatou, who we had the great pleasure of meeting recently, and feel privileged to have raised 8000GMD through Growing A Green Gambia (the eco-event ran by our environmental project Growing Green Communities). It is safe to say we loved her straight away.
She was friendly, bubbly, and warm-spirited, and upon entering her compound near coastal road in Gambia, we found some of the lovely women (and men) making their crafts, art, jewellery, and furniture…all made entirely out of waste materials, just so you know.
The women’s initiative is not just about recycling, nor is it just about their products, it is about inspiring and empowering women to create their own livelihood and giving them support and guidance on their path to financial independence. In a snapshot… The Women’s Initiative is about inspiring the next generation to follow their dreams, just like Isatou did.
The support Isatou offers is just amazing. Each of the women who creates the products has access to a bank account (not a very common thing here in The Gambia), 10% of their earnings is automatically saved, and in order to access that money, they have to show and tell Isatou exactly why they need the money. This way the women cannot ‘eat the money’, which is very common in The Gambia, and they will have access to funds if/when something bad happens.
We want to help this amazing initiative and incredible woman because even after 20 years, they still face huge challenges, especially in the last year due to you know what. What we want to do is simple, we want to give them access to the WORLD. Soon you will be able to find a lot of their 100% recycled products on our website, with their story of course, and 100% of the sales will go straight back to the Women’s Initiative.

The Brand New Collection Is Here! Release Your African Spirit!
Its amazing how many people benefit from the making one just one collection! It is not just our tailors, there's a whole bunch of people who are not directly employed by us, that helped and earned income producing our latest 'African Spirit' collection.
The fabric merchants, their apprentices, and staff gain big influxes of cash during our making seasons. The local taxi drivers that ferry us around earn fares. The market trucks, aka the boys who move stuff around the market with wheelbarrows, get excited when we come out of shops with thousands of meters of fabric we cannot carry. The local trimmings and accessories shops gain revenue as we buy as much as we possibly can from them. The button makers, the local photographers, the web designs, etc... This all plays its part in stimulating the economy of this wonderful country...
Feel good and wear some of that African Spirit!
