From bespoke suits to bamboo socks, Menlyn has men covered 

Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is looking forward to the opening of some fantastic international and local menswear stores in November 2016, to cater for the fashion-conscious man, including Fabiani, Bagozza, Tread+Miller and Markham. The shopping centre, in the capital city of Tshwane, is undergoing a R2-billion redevelopment that will make it the largest in Africa, with over 500 retail outlets, a food and entertainment court, and parking for 8 250 cars. Another great feature will be Central Park, an open air piazza with a host of restaurants. Shoppers can also take advantage of extended shopping hours that will start from 24 November 2016 when the redevelopment is complete.

Olive Ndebele, the general manager of Menlyn Park Shopping Centre, points out that fashion is no longer the sole domain of women. “Men have become just as interested in keeping up with the latest trends, so we’re extremely excited to have the best menswear stores coming to Menlyn,” she says.

There will also be “chill spots” where the ladies can relax and check out their guys in their latest threads. Relay Jeans housed in Markham – has nothing but the freshest looks to see in the latest in trends for the youthful and energetic guy who sets trends and doesn’t follow them. Their pinboards in the store carry unique fixtures with denim-on-denim showing their originality and authentic style authority.
