XHEGO is a brand that for our fathers, our legends, our heroes, people of dignity who were there before us. The logo shows a man with an umbrella, which Mr Mabela called an UMBRELLA MAN. It represents a teacher who inspired so many lives like Mr Rholihlahla, but I dwell more on my great-grandfather.
He was a teacher and he used to carry a briefcase and an umbrella due to the condition of the day when coming back from school. Some days it would be hot, somedays it rained but he never postponed building someone's future. He never gave the fish to anyone but he taught how to catch the fish. He gave wisdom to many, like many legends did.
An apple doesn't fall far from its tree, we know where we come from, therefore XHEGO is to honour our elders. It is a formal clothing brand that is available to mostly males but it doesn't mean females cannot wear it; it's for everyone who would love to respect the legends…
