Like now, more than ever. Our new collection Ekuseni speaks to what The Rad Black Kids has become. In our design language we want to not just characteristically thump our chests, which is the typical exercise of branding, but rather sit...in the room, with all of us

It feels like everything in the world has gone to s**t, but, there's still hope. Unified, we are that hope. Categorically we must understand that the ✊🏾 is stronger than our individual parts fighting at making things better, alone.

Class Solidarity, in where we make our stuff

Class solidarity as curb appeal, for people to get on board

The Class Solidarity Puffer Jacket is coming this Fall

The invitation landed. 🗓️

On 7–8 July, we take our first bow at South East Asia Fashion Week in Kuala Lumpur. A presentation. A deliberate moment where we share what we've been quietly building.

We're bringing two collections:

🌅 Ekuseni — Ndebele for "at dawn." A premium line where African embellishment meets streetwear and workwear for a new kind of Afrofuturism.
🥾 Our full outdoor-geared main line — hiking shoes, trail runners, and clothing designed for the Black body in the wild.

This is not a pivot. It's an expansion. And you're the first to know.

More soon. For now, save the date.

🚨🚨SHOCK DROP🚨🚨

This is the Carmen Lo Hiker. I named it after my business partner, Carmen — someone resilient, charming, and so steady you almost forget how rare that is. The shoe follows suit: oxford‑esque but trail‑ready, clean enough for a good fit, tough enough to leave the city behind.

It’s a pre‑order, shipping late August / early September. That means you lock in the lower price now, and your pair arrives as we head into autumn. Not many made — once the window closes, these go quiet.

Made in Portugal. Hairy suede. Waterproof. Two laces, green and red. 20 trees planted per pair.

I spent years fascinated, collecting, flipping mismatched sneakers — and never kept a single pair. Not one. Y'all might not know I paid for my MBA flipping sneakers. Only ever kept one pair. (Never get high on your own supply.)

But the mismatched sneaker? It's always moved me. The liberty — no, the privilege — of being Zimbabwean meant there was a deeper connection with these fabrics, these patterns, this wild mix of colour and story.

First time I saw a zebra: 6th grade, class trip to Matopos. They dropped us in the middle of the bush with nothing but a topographic map. And randomly, I had on a red t-shirt. Walking past a herd of wildebeest and zebra — that was a formative moment. It's when I learned cartoons lie!

The Moyo is back. Mismatched. Unhinged.

A little note about our future. Please watch. 🌱

This is still my favorite sneaker I've ever sketched.

From the first line, I wanted a late 80s basketball silhouette — low, sleek, but cut from something else. Like it fell out of a meteorite.

We used the best pebbled leather we could find. Named the colorway after my niece, Shiloh.

Only 5 pairs left. 25% off with code SUMMER25.

So how do we make a shoe 🧵

Every shoe we’ve ever made starts the same way: a sketch. Shoutout to architecture classes

From there, I build a hyper‑realistic render. Then comes the hard part – finding a sample maker who sees the vision. Basically, this person has to be the love of my life

But here’s the truth:

If you look at V1… seems like me and that sample maker were beefing. That toe box threw off the whole geometry. Created mad sizing issues. We weren't aligned.

So we went back. Reworked everything.

V2 is the result. We fixed the toe box, dialed in the fit, and built something meant to last. An heirloom shoe.

The Stallion V2 is available now.

Shipping immediately.

No more beef. Just beauty.

We heard you. 👂

We build our website in‑house, which means sometimes the logic and function stuff is… a bit above my pay grade.

So instead of overcomplicating it, I made something easier.

A new section at the top of our site → search by size.

✅ See all current inventory – sale items, new drops, everything – filtered by YOUR size.
✅ No more clicking through 10 pages to find what fits.
✅ Just your size. Your gear. Your time.

Pop onto the site. Check it out. Tell me what you think.

⚡ Drop a ⚡ if this actually helps you.
