About The Impala Collection<\/strong><\/h2>

The Impala Collection is about celebrating and supporting African wildlife, whilst making beautiful clothing in a sustainable way. That's why it's manufactured in a UK wind-powered, ethically accredited factory, using certified organic cotton.<\/p>

The Impala Collection was founded in 2015, when it originally sold Zimbabwean-crafted homeware in the UK. Today, we sell Zimbabwean-inspired clothing, art and accessories that celebrate Africa's unique and irreplaceable wildlife.<\/p>

All the clothing is made in the UK from certified organic cotton, giving you an item that's not only softer to the skin but kinder to the planet. Every item sold is made in a wind-powered, ethically accredited factory.<\/p>

Worldwide shipping is available (excl. Zambia and Zimbabwe).<\/p>

Supporting conservation: 5% of profits go towards protecting rhinos<\/strong><\/h2>

Dambari Wildlife Trust is dedicated to community-driven conservation and research in the Matobo region of Zimbabwe: one of the few places in Africa where not one but two species of rhino still live in the wild. For every full-price item purchased on our website, 5% of profits usually go to Dambari Wildlife Trust.We want to do more than create great products. We want to raise awareness about the plight of African wildlife. We also want to actively contribute towards conservation efforts on the ground. And we want to do it in a way that doesn't hurt the planet.<\/p>

That\u2019s why, for every item that you buy, 5% of profits will go to Dambari Wildlife Trust. Dambari is dedicated to community-driven conservation in the Matobo region of Zimbabwe: one of the few places in Africa where not one but two species of rhino still live in the wild. These rhinos are still very much under threat from poaching and habitat loss. Together, we can make a difference! Visit the Dambari Wildlife Trust website<\/a><\/p>
