DSI's finest.

What's the story?

Two-piece shoes that slap the sole might seem an odd choice for cricket. Or driving. Or anything except a walk along the beach. Yet the simple slipper keeps Sri Lanka on its feet.

From the streets of Colombo to the steps of Sigiriya to the golden sands down south, that familiar flip-flop-scuff resounds around the island. Slippers shift students, carry captains, press pedals and move millions. Except when they’re flicked off for ocean dips.

Durable, affordable and impervious to even the wettest off-season weather, monsoon puddles are no match for this rubber footwear. Pick up a pair from Pettah and nothing will stand in your way.

Sizing

Our unisex tees fit true to standard European sizing.

• Medium will fit a 38in chest

Fabric spec

100% overstock cotton. Made in limited batches using surplus fabric from Sri Lanka's garment industry. Screen-printed by hand.

Our cotton weight ranges from 130-155gsm, so it sits well without making you sweat. Like a trusty sarong, our tees are comfortable, soft to touch and offer just the right amount of stretch.

From the fabric to the packaging, we like our tees to be greener than gotu kola. We use 100% overstock cotton sourced from Sri Lanka's garment industry. We also keep our offcuts, use eco shipping materials and pay fair wages to our team of local seamstresses.
