About the brand

Wataka

Kente, Kuba, and mud cloth. Basotho blankets, Zulu beadwork, and paint on Ndebele mud houses. Textiles and patterns have been telling the story of Africa for centuries—and continue to captivate the imagination to this day. Wataka designs original socks that are as colourful and vibrant as the people and textiles that inspired them. Since each pair reflects the rich heritage rooted in countries like Mali, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and our very own South Africa, these socks are not simply a fun fashion statement. They are an expression of African identity. And, by creating jobs and supporting local communities, this brand pays homage to the beauty and triumph of the African spirit.
