Kente is a superior cloth in many ways. The demand for Kente wether print or woven, surpasses all cloths in Africa. Such is the reason why Kente has accrued global recognition and is now the most widely known cloth produced on, and from the continent. But let’s be honest, we all know handwoven Kente is the real deal whilst Kente prints are a fake and inferior replica of the cloth. Here are 5 top reasons why authentic Kente is better than Kente Print.
Quality - You only have to feel the texture of handwoven Kente to know it’s better quality than Kente prints. It’s woven with the highest quality silks, high grade cotton and polyester. But Kente prints are flimsy cloths made from cheap low grade cotton massed produced in textile factories.
Durable - It lasts longer. So long, its passed down from generation to generation. This makes authentic Kente both an asset and a great fashion investment.
Genuine - Needless to say, genuine design is always better than its fake counterpart, and the same applies to Kente cloth.
Handmade and Unique - Handwoven cloth is always unique because each piece, no matter how similar, differs in colour, shade and dimensions. Although its takes as little longer to make, the sheer time and labour speaks to its meticulous design, uniqueness and quality. What more could one want?
Luxury and Exclusive - No two pieces are the same so you’re guaranteed a cloth exclusive to you. Handwoven Kente is the epitome of Ghana’s high end luxury fashion. There aren’t many cloths that offer an authentic royal experience so choose woven Kente over print everyday, and every time.
