Thank you!

Friniggi Sportswear will be closing its online store indefinitely. 

This was  a difficult decision to make, but one that had to be made nonetheless.

I have met the most incredible women from around the world whilst providing them with sportswear.
And I enjoyed this part the most.

I have not written off Islamic Sportswear for good, and may yet return to this game to serve the needs of sporting sisters everywhere.

My "mission" with friniggi Sportswear for Muslim women was to contribute to the development of Muslim women sports. I will continue this mission in another way, another platform.

Watch this space as friniggi.com evolves into its new phase.

Thank you for your support over the years, and I hope you will continue the journey with me into our new project.

Peace, love and light
Fatima

  6. Dear Fatima:

    I don't know you, but I have admired from afar your line of sportswear for the past couple of years. I had finally put aside enough to order one of your sports hijabs today, but I see that you have closed your store. Yes, I am disappointed, but I will hope that I can get one sometime in the future!

    In the meantime, I wish you every success - and I appreciate what you have done to help Muslim women be more active. I appreciated reading your story so very much - your describe very accurately the very issues I have experienced in seeking to be active. Thank you - it was a wonderful connection to make!

Could you suggest alternatives...I used to go gym but due to a number of factors had to stop...hardest part was finding a comfortable scarf that was sweat friendly!!! And did not need constant adjustments.. Jzkhair sister
