Wear Kenyan clothes? Not us, we are Kenyans

A recent survey revealed that only five per cent of Kenyans wear clothes made in Kenya. Most Kenyans wear second-hand clothing from abroad, and one of the reasons they give is that Kenyan-made clothing is expensive.

That means they mostly reserve their Kenya-made wear for special occasions. Again, that means everyday wear like T-shirts, jeans, socks and other items are foreign.
