Askari Wild is an e-commerce concept that aims to raise funds for wildlife conservation projects via sales of branded apparel and merchandise available to animal lovers around the globe. 100% of the net profits raised by Askari Wild are donated back to the wildlife organisations that are featured on this site.

Askari Wild is run and administered by The Askari Project which is a fully registered and compliant not for profit organisation in Australia. The Askari Project was launched in 2015 to raise support and funding for the aerial and ground conservation operations of The Tsavo Trust in Kenya in their work to monitor and protect some of the last great Tuskers of Africa. These fundraising efforts have now increased to include supporting other conservation organisations via the Askari Wild concept. When making a purchase you will notice on Paypal reciept emails and possibly other notifications references to The Askari Project as this is the officially registered not-for-profit entity. More information about The Askari Project can be found at www.theaskariproject.org

Askari Wild is a platform for wildlife conservation organisations to sell branded clothing and merchandise to supporters around the globe. Every item sold on this site generates funding for these organisations and contributes to the crucial conservation work they do every day to monitor and protect countless species of wildlife. Sales for each organisation are tallied quarterly and funds submitted to the respective organisations to continue this work.

We have product sizes / dimensions for every item listed on our store. This information is found in the product description section of each product and also listed on our Garment Sizing Info page. Please review this sizing information carefully as the product dimensions found on our site may be different to similar products you have purchased elsewhere.

Askari Wild is a fundraising concept of the fully registered and compliant charitable organisation - The Askari Project. The Askari Project is located in Australia and whilst the $USD currency is the most common & recognised throughout the world it unfortunately brings with it a lot of fees & charges to work in alternate currencies when processing small online transactions through the various payment gateways and providers available to us. In the end we felt it best to operate the site in our home currency of Australian Dollars to minimise these transaction and operating costs wherever we can to ensure we are able to raise as much funding as possible for the intended conservation projects we are supporting.

Whilst we endeavour to strike a balance between raising vital funding for wildlife conservation projects and keeping our products as competitively priced as possible the cost price from our international distributor also plays a large role in the retail price. Unfortunately items sized 2XL or larger cost a few dollars more per item and as such we are forced to pass these increased costs on to maintain the conservation funding we strive to provide the wildlife organisations represented by Askari Wild.

When unpacking a new shirt or hoodie with a direct-to-garment (DTG) print, you might notice a vinegar-like smell or an off-white residue. Don't worry, that's not unusual - it's from a fixation agent applied during the printing process and it's not permanent. Fixation agent (sometimes known as pre-treatment) is used for all DTG prints across the industry. It helps the ink bond with the fabric, and without it, the ink would flake off the garment. The solution is simply to wash the garment. Neither the residue nor the smell is permanent and both should go away after one wash.
