Distinctive knitwear brand that is rooted in Laduma Ngxokolo's journey into creating modern Xhosa-inspired knitwear for Xhosa initiates to wear for their initiation ritual, using tradition Xhosa beadwork motifs & patterns as inspiration. Laduma's vision was to develop knitwear that is more relevant to Xhosa initiates, in order to substitute the knitwear that doesn't celebrate their heritage.
MaXhosa by Laduma knitwear is proudly knitted in South Africa with South Africa kid's mohair and merino wool.
