Founded in 2008, GALXBOY started with a bold vision: to revolutionize fashion with designs created by the youth, for the youth. Over the years, this pioneering brand has steadily built a fashion empire, blending innovation with a distinct cultural flair.
In the past year alone, GALXBOY has opened seven new stores, including high-profile locations at V&A Waterfront in Cape Town, two stores in Johannesburg, and branches in Emalahleni, Durban, Mbombela, and Polokwane. This rapid growth highlights GALXBOY’s commitment to offering a unique fusion of culture and fashion.
With 10 stores now nationwide, GALXBOY’s presence is stronger than ever. The brand has confirmed Gqeberha and Rustenburg as its next destinations, marking another milestone in its nationwide expansion. These new openings reflect GALXBOY’s dedication to bringing cutting-edge fashion closer to even more South Africans.

But that’s not all…
After launching at the iconic V&A Waterfront last year, GALXBOY has relocated to a larger space within the mall, enhancing the shopping experience for its customers. Officially opened this past weekend, the new store has quickly become a cultural hub for both locals and tourists. It serves as the perfect destination to experience GALXBOY’s unique blend of contemporary fashion, deeply inspired by South African culture.
Like its other stores, the new Cape Town location offers a sophisticated, welcoming atmosphere, staffed by a young, well-trained team. Here, shoppers can indulge in affordable African luxury, knowing that every piece is “Made To Last.” GALXBOY is not just a brand—it’s a movement, and it’s here to stay.
“Last year was truly exceptional for our brand, largely due to the tremendous support from our customers, who ultimately serve as our ambassadors. We successfully launched six new stores across the country, effectively expanding GALXBOY’s presence throughout South Africa,” stated Thatiso Dube, GALXBOY’s founder and creative visionary. He added, “This month, we eagerly anticipate the grand opening of our new store at the V&A Waterfront, and we are super amped about becoming an integral part of the fashion landscape in both Rustenburg and Gqeberha later this year. Additionally, our international reach is expanding rapidly, with online orders pouring in from across the continent, the United States and Europe. GALXBOY is no longer just about South Africa, it’s GALXBOY to the world.”
GALXBOY invites all fashion enthusiasts, trendsetters, and the community to join in celebrating these milestones. Together, we continue to shape the fashion landscape in South Africa with your invaluable support.
