MAMI WATA CITI SHIRT

"Citi" shirt for the surfer on the move. Featuring an all over retro hatchback car graphic in blues and greens.

This loose fit shirt is made in Africa with 105g Cotton Poplin fabric. 100% Cotton. 

The fit is loose for comfort and movement. A camp collar gives the shirt an open neck holiday/surf trip feel. The shirts come in both our original bold prints and graphics, but also in solid colours with some detailing to share some wisdom and make you smile. These shirts work day or night, on the beach, near the beach and far from the beach. 

“Mami Wata” is West African pidgin English literally meaning ‘Mama Water’… ‘Mother Ocean’ if you prefer. From Madagascar to Morocco, Liberia to Mozambique, Mami Wata is the African water spirit who appears in the shape of a mermaid. It is said that those who she takes for her lovers, return with a new spirit and become more successful and good looking. She is a symbol of fertility, a protector of women and children, a guardian of sea creatures and natural environments.
