HIITU is an intercultural project with focus on design and handcrafts. The maternal roots of the brand’s founders Carlotta and Rosalie Cramer-Klett derive from this tribe. This heritage is the inspiration for the brand and its pursuit of synergy among humans as well as between humans and nature through creativity. Founded in 2015, the sister’s joint project is driven by their passion for design, craftsmanship and culture and leads them to seek out the most skilled artisans and manufacturers around the world. The result of these collaborations are fairly traded, high quality products with their very own multifaceted HIITU aesthetic.

These handy sunglass straps will hold your glasses securely around your neck so you never lose your favourite pair of glasses again! They are hand-braided under fair conditions from metallic thread - a material often used for caftan decorations. Each piece is a North African piece of art.

Total length: 65 cm
Material: 100% metallic thread

Duties and taxes are calculated at checkout. The cost is provided to us by the custom agency within the destination country. Although charges are not always incurred, assessment of duties and taxes will be based on the value of the order and the tax-free threshold, if it exists, for goods imported into the destination country. Payment of any duties and import taxes is the responsibility of the recipient. This calculated amount can be paid at checkout DDP (Delivery Duty Paid) or upon receipt DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid).

We are not responsible for these fees, and suggest customers contact their local customs bureau or DHL Worldwide with inquiries when selecting the option DDU because the final charges by DHL may vary. We therefore recommend selecting the option DDP.

If you prefer to select the option DDU you will be charged by DHL directly and in this case you are still responsible to pay duties and taxes upon the import into your country.If you refuse a package upon delivery we consider it as abandoned and the package is not eligible for a refund or store credit.

The cost of the return shipment is fully the responsibility of the customer.
