Growing up on the coast of South Africa, the concept and idea behind the brand stems from our love for the ocean and years spent in local production. You need to love what you do, have passion and understanding, and to draw inspiration from the beauty that is South Africa. It’s important to manufacture quality garments and to keep producing what makes customers want more.
We’ve taken a massive stance on how our products are made and will always remain a 100% locally manufactured and proudly South African clothing brand. You can take pride in the fact you’ve purchased something that is made in South Africa and is made by people who love what we do.
You can find Lapa Side trading at The Blue Bird Garage Market in Muizenberg, The Collectables Hub and Cafe in Simons Town, The Cape Point Vineyards in Noordhoek, and the Franschhoek Village Market in Franschhoek.
If you’re looking for some locally manufactured gear, head on over to our ‘Contact Us’ page and get in touch. We can assist with design, concept, manufacturing, and final product.
Worldwide shipping is available.
