In terms of assortment, Kenya has only recently approached civilized standards - global brands have appeared in supermarkets, and prices for branded clothing have fallen to the public. However, here you can buy original souvenirs, jewelry, good Kenyan tea, coffee and other local products, as well as some specific things that are found only here. In addition, you may need to stock up on food or change your clothes and shoes. You need to know where to do it better when planning tours to Kenya. Usually Kenyan shops start their work at 8.30 am and work until 17.00 with a break from 12.30 to 14.00. On Saturday, shops are already closed at 12.30, and on Sunday there is a day off. This, however, does not apply to tourist-oriented shops that are open until 19:00 or even  Long Clothing in Kenya 20:00 and do not close for lunch. And large shopping centers in the capital can work until 23.00, and even around the clock. But interesting authentic souvenirs, especially at a reasonable price, cannot be found there. Immediately, we note what is not even worth spending money on. First of all, we are talking about diamonds and products with them, as well as about gold. Customs simply won't let them through. The same goes for any products made from ivory. Pay attention to where things are made of fabric: if this is not real African, but textile made in India, you should not take it, it has nothing to do with African tradition. But semi-precious stones and jewelry made from them in Kenya can and should be purchased. It can be purple or blue tanzanite, "tiger's eye", tsavorite (namesake of the famous Kenyan national park) and even malachite, which is also found in East Africa. The local figurines from the so-called. "Soapstone", as well as wooden figures, including ebony. You can buy a wicker basket or pumpkin dishes, traditional beaded jewelry, shuku (Masai outerwear). A very colorful and, in the end, useful thing - sandals from car tires, which are masterfully made by the Masai and other Kenyan tribes. They are perfectly adapted for long passages, the jumpers on them are made of colored leather, so this is a very successful and original solution for trekking in the heat. Experienced travelers and those who have moved to Kenya to live also highlight the "safari boots", boots for all occasions, and multifunctional "kikoy" capes. This is the name of the most popular suede boots in Kenya - durable, breathable, comfortable, practically not wearing out. Europeans who settled in Kenya especially love them. In "safari boots" it is convenient not only to go to nature, but also to tinker in the garden and take long walks. They are worn by both men and women. It is believed that the best way to buy these boots is from the BATA store in Nairobi. A kikoy is a piece of patterned fabric that can be used for a wide variety of purposes. White women who live or often visit Kenya fell in love with him for a long time, and they also started a fashion to give kikoi as a gift. Kikoi is good to use as a pareo (on the beaches and pools of Kenya, men also wear it as a towel on their hips). Kikoy is used as a bedding, bedspread, diaper, blanket, curtain, baby sling, tablecloth, sun protection, scarf, etc. The soft natural fabric makes the kikoy pleasant to the touch, and the abundance of colors makes it look. Kikoi from Tanzania are cheaper, since they are of slightly lower quality, and kikoi from India, made "for Africa", are not worth buying. Folk souvenirs, as well as local delicacies (honey, macadamia nuts - honey and salted) can be bought on the way to the national parks at stops. Tea, coffee, Kenyan rum and Kenyan coffee liqueur are best served in duty free. In the shops at the hotels and at the airport, you can only buy frankly "tourist" souvenirs, plus you can't bargain there (and in Kenya you can and should bargain). But in other places you can buy real antique values. Therefore, it is worth considering in detail what to buy in Kenya. There was a time when Europeans, who traveled to Kenya for a long time, took with them, for example, a box or two of branded ketchup, because there was nowhere to buy it. But recently, good shopping centers have appeared here, which are mainly concentrated in https://jiji.co.ke/clothing/long
