New in the shop: the French West Indies Collection from Janji! 🌟

Each Janji collection is inspired by a different place where the team collaborates with local artists on their print designs. This season is about the connection of nature, art and movement, and the prints and colors represent the vibrant Caribbean islands of the French West Indies. 🌺🌴🐚

Plus, 2% of sales are donated at the end of the season to a clean water nonprofit in the region. 💧
