sakam

Sakam, meaning “bee” in Pokot, is a contemporary Kenyan fashion brand founded by Jay Cherop. Like the bee, Sakam symbolizes community, creation, and purpose the values at the heart of everything the brand makes. Each piece is crafted with care, blending heritage, sustainability, and storytelling. Sakam transforms leftover fabrics and textile scraps into wearable art, turning fashion waste into symbols of hope and renewal. Rooted in emotion and meaning, its collections move from calm simplicity to bold, sculptural statements that challenge fast fashion and celebrate mindful creation. Locally made in Kenya, Sakam stands for authenticity, beauty, and conscious craftsmanship — fashion that not only looks good but carries a story worth wearing.
