About this design
The Garoua follows the safari shirt tradition: short sleeves, epaulettes and four flap pockets. Cut in beige linen, it becomes the ideal outfit for the hottest days, smart without a jacket or tie. In white poplin it looks dressier; in chocolate gabardine, more structured. Wear it untucked over matching or contrasting trousers.
With four pockets and epaulettes, a safari shirt needs precise cutting: the pockets must line up and the shoulders must fit just right. Made to measure also lets you get the length right so it hangs well when worn untucked. Your Douala tailor sews it to your measurements, and KOUTIVA checks that the pockets are symmetrical before delivery.
Styling tips
- Beige linen over brown or white trousers gives a classic, easy look.
- For the office, wear white poplin with navy trousers.
- Keep it untucked to preserve the true safari line.
- Don't overfill the pockets so they keep their shape.
Choosing your fabric
Beige linen is the natural choice for hot days and travel; white poplin and sky blue chambray suit the office, while chocolate gabardine gives a more formal look.
