Bring the drums of the savanna to the rink with a hockey jersey inspired by the Kulamba Ceremony, the Chewa harvest thanksgiving held each August in Zambia. The Kulamba Ceremony Original Hockey Jersey is a custom hockey jersey with your own name and number, made in sizes XS to 6XL and four colors: Ochre Red, Maize Gold, Savanna Green and Clay Cream. It is a festive holiday fan shirt and comfortable sports apparel for game day, the rink, Kulamba Ceremony celebrations and family gatherings, and it works just as well as a matching team jersey.
The Artwork
The sublimated artwork is built around one clear Kulamba Ceremony theme: a detailed round crest in the middle of the chest, patterned stripes on the sleeves and hem, and a clean back with open space for your name and number. Each colorway keeps a tight palette so the design stays sharp from across the rink. It is an original design with no team, league or brand marks.
- Crest: three carved goblet drums with laced skins in front of thatched huts, a baobab and an acacia tree, under a striped orange sunset with ripe maize cobs on each side
- Stripes: sleeve and hem bands stamped with little goblet drums and maize cobs
- Back: a small drum at the neck above the name and number
About Kulamba Ceremony
The Kulamba Ceremony is the annual thanksgiving gathering of the Chewa people, held in late August near Katete in Zambia's Eastern Province. Chiefs and families from Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique come together to give thanks for the harvest, share news of their lands and celebrate with drumming, songs and dance.
