GALXBOY
GALXBOY, a South African streetwear
brand, is deeply intertwined with the
vibrant and rebellious youth street
culture that thrives in the urban
centres of Mzansi. Conceived by
Thatiso Dube, who also serves as the
head designer, GALXBOY was born
in 2008 out of a recognition of the
need for a brand that truly speaks
to the youth, particularly Millennials
and Generation Z. This connection
to the youth is the driving force
behind GALXBOY’s specialisation in
the design, manufacturing, and retail
of streetwear fashion apparel and
accessories.
