YA SOKO | BLACK

As you can tell — we’re definitely into the colour Black, so we’ve launched our own range called YA SOKO Black.

YA SOKO Black is an exclusive collection only available at YA SOKO. At YA SOKO Black you’ll discover designs that aren’t available anywhere else. From unique finds to our collaborations with your favourite brands. Because we believe in slow fashion and reducing waste, we produce very limited runs of each product, so once they’re gone, they’re gone - though you can still pre-order when an item is sold out.

YA SOKO BLACK TATREEZ

As our first collaboration in the YA SOKO Black range, we’ve proudly teamed up with one of the brands we love working with — Darzah — to bring you a bold, thoughtfully designed collection that celebrates shared values and craft.

Darzah are a Fair Trade certified brand, who are committed to providing their employees fair working wages and conditions. Darzah artisans are women from the West Bank who have historically endured marginalization in the form of low-income, gender inequality, and lack of economic opportunities. Darzah’s mission is to economically empower these women by providing job opportunities, training, and a fair income.

Darzah is a non-profit, ethical fashion brand creating authentic, handmade Palestinian products. The embroidery style, tatreez, is a traditional art form passed down through centuries of women. Our goal is to bring tatreez apparel and décor to the world in order to celebrate and preserve Palestinian heritage.
