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.
