Z-Tee Homme™

Name: Z-Tee Homme™
Brand: Zipper Vibe

Global Luxury. African Soul.

Heavyweight cotton, a single heritage panel, a gold Z at the heart.

The men's tee is built on a 240gsm combed-cotton body with a boxy, shoulder-clean cut. Each piece carries exactly one heritage gesture — a Bogolan mud-cloth placket, a Bazin Riche shoulder band or a Woodin cuff — never a full print. Restraint is the design.

Fashion is temporary. Identity is forever.
