Time for wax print trousers for men

Types of wax prints that most men love to design with include ever popular Angelina (Dashiki), Sika wo ntaban (money has wings), Subura, an Akan word for a well. The tiny dots which are in a spiral form resemble the ripples made in a well after water is fetched from it or when a stone is dropped into its depths.

Efie mmosea is another loved by most. This, in English means gravels. Gravels because, the design in it looks like small stones. The meaning is that if your sister or a relative hurts you, it is more painful than an outsider.

Bonsu is also another pattern that is often used for trousers. In Twi, a whale is called 'Bonsu' therefore, when a person puts on this cloth, the message he or she is trying to put across is that, no one can tackle him or her.

Another pattern that does well with a pair of trouser is Akyekydeɛ akyi meaning back of the tortoise.
