written by Tania Griffin

Young Checkers customers can now complete their Sixty60 ‘look’ with branded teal jumpsuits to accompany the wildly popular ride-on motorbikes as children across South Africa continue to emulate their favourite delivery drivers. 

Manufactured locally in Isithebe, KwaZulu-Natal, and available just in time for the colder winter months, the new Sixty60 kids’ jumpsuits come in the following sizes: 3-4 years, 5-6 years, 7-8 years and 8-9 years. 

Checkers continues to expand its Sixty60 toy collection with products designed to inspire immersive playtime. The limited-edition miniature toy motorbikes were launched in July 2022, followed by the iconic ride-on motorbikes in August 2023, the replica Sixty60 helmets – complete with visors and chin straps – in January 2024, and most recently the branded jumpsuits. 

The kids’ jumpsuit (R99.99), miniature toy motorbike (R99.99) and replica helmet (R49.99) are for sale on the Sixty60 app and in selected Checkers supermarkets.

Global lifestyle brand UGG® has unveiled the next iteration of Regenerate by UGG™: a collection highlighting the brand’s dedication to crafting products that last.

The Regenerate by UGG™ Collection is a pinnacle expression of everything consumers love about the UGG® icons, but with a renewed focus on what it means to choose products that feel good – inside and out.

With a commitment to exacting artisanship, precision cutting and premium construction methods, the brand sourced materials from farms practising regenerative agriculture, helping to reduce negative impacts while enhancing positive ones.

By reimagining how consciously sourced and crafted styles look and feel, UGG® refreshed the brand’s must-have styles with masterful craftsmanship. The expansion of the brand’s regenerative offerings kicks off with the new Tasman Crafted Regenerate Slipper and the Ultra Mini Crafted Regenerate, both examples of how the brand’s dedication to regenerative sourcing only enhances the beauty and durability of the shoes.

Tasman Crafted Regenerate

UGG® has created the Tasman Crafted Regenerate as the latest evolution of the iconic Tasman. This iteration of the classic indoor-outdoor slipper is made from materials sourced from farms that practise regenerative agriculture. Creating comfort for today while prioritising responsibility for tomorrow, this slipper features a sugarcane EVA outsole and UGGplush™ sock liner made from 60% upcycled wool. Designed with a suede upper sourced from farms that practise regenerative agriculture and finished with hand-stitched details and a woven leather strap.

The UGG® Ultra Mini Crafted Regenerate is made with Premium Twinface sheepskin, from farms that practise regenerative agriculture – which helps impact soil, encourage wildlife diversity, capture carbon in the ground, and preserve the land for future generations. Cast in the same iconic silhouette, this version of the Ultra Mini is elevated with hand-stitched details and a bolder Twin Seam. Slip into comfort with UGGplush™ upcycled wool lining, and an EVA outsole made from fast-growing, renewable and rainwater-nourished sugarcane.

Social media sensation ‘Danasoli’ goes mainstream with Edgars

by Tania Griffin
written by Tania Griffin

A chance TikTok video that lasted just 30 seconds between a Grade R pupil and her teacher a year ago has launched what could be South Africa’s next best thing.

And now the Danasoli brand is available at selected Edgars stores countrywide and online. The partnership deal between Johannesburg-based businessman and entrepreneur Themba Mthembu and retailer Edgars was signed in July this year.

South Africans love humour, and with that Nhlalonhle Mazubane captured the hearts of South Africans when she laughingly told her teacher on a TikTok video that not only was she unable to draw a “danasoli” (dinosaur), but that its eight legs as depicted in her picture were “i-righty” (right).

Mthembu says the social media reaction to the video and Nhlalonhle’s drawing was sensational and emphatic – the people loved it.

Realising the opportunity, Mthembu travelled from Johannesburg to Ulundi in northern KwaZulu-Natal to meet Nhlalonhle, her father and her grandmother together with her teacher and videographer, Nonhlanhla Dube. His aim was to get permission to convert the drawing to a clothing brand. Once permission was given, the entrepreneur started printing T-shirts, which he sold online.

But, as Mthembu told a television anchor on E-News, his vision was so much bigger than just selling T-shirts. His aim was to create a recognised South African clothing brand that was developed, owned and protected by black South Africans. “I don’t want to be seen as exploiting anything or anyone. I wanted to do this the right way. That is why I approached Retailability. The partnership makes perfect sense to me because having the brand in the Edgars stores will give me the opportunity to take it to a much bigger market. At the same time, I know I am doing things the right way and in Nhlalonhle’s best interests.”

And what the Danasoli journey proves is that anything is possible – no matter who you are, or where you live. This is the message Mthembu says he wants to get out to young and aspiring clothing designers. “This could happen to anyone. Nhlalonhle’s story should encourage those who have big dreams to keep on dreaming and not to give up.”

As custodian, Nhlalonhle will receive all the royalties arising from the use of the brand, which undoubtedly will change the life of this little girl whose mother died three years ago, forever.

“The Danasoli brand has a definite corporate social responsibility element to it as well. For example, the school – Mveloyamaswazi Primary School – which is attended by Nhlalonhle in Ulundi needs so much in the way of upgrades and resources. Some of the proceeds from sales are ring-fenced to make improvements to her school before looking to see what other schools we can support and help in the area,” Mthembu says.
