TSHEPO THE JEAN MAKER
TSHEPO is an authentic South African brand and one of South Africa’s most
popular denim labels.
Tshepo Mohlala grew up in a household which include his grandmother, and
she influenced his decision to pursue a career in fashion.
He started a course in Fashion Design but dropped out in 2011 due to financial
difficulties. He had learned the basics of sewing and pattern making. He
broadened his knowledge of denim by researching on the internet. Tshepo
started making custom jeans for clients and built up a customer base. He
would sell his jeans from a backpack. He then sold his jeans from a motorbike
and the business started to grow. He got a loan for R8 000 and created men’s
jeans called ‘The Presidential Slim fit’. He created 100 pairs of jeans and that
is how the brand was born. In 2015 he launched his brand ‘Tshepo’ with a
crown logo. Specialising in one pair allowed him to perfect his craft. He made
them available in four different washes. He opened a retail store in
Johannesburg. They offer custom made jeans where customers have their
measurements taken. A variety of jeans styles can be made.
Tshepo now offers a range of denim clothing from jeans to shirts. He also sells
golf t-shirts which are more affordable.
He would like to expand by offering more inclusivity in terms of ladies’ wear.
