How we measure

Second-hand and new.

Second-hand, graded honestly

The best of Gikomba, Toi, Eastleigh and the estate stalls — listed by the vendors themselves, each item measured and graded on its condition before it’s checked at our hub.

New, from Official Stores

Kenyan brands and makers who produce their own pieces — denim, sweats, dresses — sell as Official Stores. Their items are labelled New, with the same measurements and the same hub check.

✓ Official StoreNew

Your fit, your aesthetic.

Save your measurements once. Every item on Vazi is measured at the same points, so instead of a size on a label we tell you how it will actually sit on you.

A “28” from one maker is not a “28” from another. We don’t trust the label — we measure the garment.

Dresses, skirts, shorts, shoes and bags each have their own points — the full guide explains every one.

How it works

1

Browse and check the fit

Filter by what fits you. See the measurements and the condition before you decide.

2

Pay with M-Pesa, held safely

Your money is held securely — the vendor is paid only after you confirm.

3

The hub checks it, for real

Every order passes through our Nairobi hub. We check photos, measurements and quality against the listing.

4

Delivered, or picked up

Doorstep or pickup point. Confirm it arrived as described — or open a claim.

What the hub is: a physical checkpoint in Nairobi. Vendors keep their own stock and list it themselves; every order passes through the hub, where we make sure the listing told the truth.

Questions people ask us

Is it only second-hand?

No. Most of Vazi is second-hand from vendors across Nairobi, graded by condition. Kenyan brands that make their own clothes sell new pieces as Official Stores.

Will a size 34 fit me?

We don’t use size labels — they mean something different at every maker. Every piece is measured in centimetres; save your measurements and we tell you if it reads tight, fitting, loose or baggy on you.

Is the hub a real place?

Yes — a physical checkpoint in Nairobi. Every order passes through it before delivery.

Do vendors send you their clothes to upload?

No. Vendors keep their stock and list it themselves. We verify the listing when the order comes through the hub.

What if it doesn’t fit or isn’t as described?

Open a claim from your order within the claim window; your money is still held until you confirm, and refunds go back to your M-Pesa.

Where do you deliver?

Nairobi during the pilot — doorstep in the pilot areas, or a pickup point.
