Odwira Sweatshirt
Description
About the Print:
The Odwira print is a take on kente cloth, a Ghanaian woven textile made with strips of silk and cotton. Traditional kente weaving is done on a wooden loom and kente cloth was historically worn by royalty. There are hundreds of different types of kente patterns, each with its own name or meaning typically based on proverbs, historical events, important leads, or plants. Kente has become an important symbol of African heritage and pride across the diaspora. We’ve named this print “Odwira” after the Odwira Festival, an annual celebration by the chiefs and peoples of Fanteakwa District and Akuapem in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The Odwira Festival is a time for seeking renewal and protection.

Love this pattern and bought the matching joggers as well. Daughter got lots of compliments and it’s held up great in the wash. Appreciate the snaps in the shoulder so it’s stress-free to pull over her head. 10/10!

Our Story
Hi! I'm Temidayo, the mom behind Ade + Ayo. I created Ade + Ayo when I was pregnant with my son and I couldn't find children's products that would introduce him to African cultures while fitting into his everyday life. I wanted to change that so that my son, and all of our kids, can grow up with pride and respect for what Africa has to offer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Ade + Ayo black-owned?
Yes, Ade + Ayo is owned by a Nigerian mom - so we’re proudly black- and woman-owned!
Is it cultural appropriation for my child to use Ade + Ayo products if we’re not African or of African descent?
Great question! I created Ade + Ayo to make beautiful African design more accessible to children. I hope to spark curiosity, love and respect for the people and cultures that inspire our products. From my perspective, it’s not cultural appropriation. When you receive your Ade + Ayo pieces, it’s important that your family interacts with these items from a place of celebration and respect for the cultures and people from whom they originate. You can read more about this on our main FAQ page!
