Out of a desire to give back to the community of Nairobi, Kilele - meaning summit or mountain peak in Swahili - was founded to provide steady uplifting jobs and instill eternal values in local impoverished communities. We exist to leverage quality gear and fair prices to create sustained economic empowerment.
At Kilele, our gear is the peak of African quality and ruggedness. Designed using high-quality leather and canvas our gear is versatile while uniquely African. Our craftsmen take great pride and joy in hand stitching and preparing each piece! Thank you for joining us as we give back to a community that has provided so much for us!
Our gear is made with the finest materials sourced in East Africa! Our leather is high quality, full-grain oil pull up leather; meant to last a lifetime and to age beautifully. It is natural for it to show the marks of age and character from its use - showing the world your love and trust of our products. Our Hides are hand picked to ensure the highest quality and color possible, but normal wear and tear is also to be expected.
All of our leathers and Natural hides are hand picked and each of our bags assembled by hand by our amazing team, due to the nature of this there may be slight variations in each piece making your gear truly unique!
Something doesn’t fit or just isn’t right? Hamna Shida! No worries! We will replace it, and cover the shipping!
Zero Shipping costs for all orders over $200. Zilch. Sufuri. Nada.
