The collection draws on the South African brand ambassador’s personal style, translating his distinctive aesthetic into a shared visual language.
Diesel and South African brand ambassador Daliwonga expand their partnership with the launch of a 10-piece capsule collection, marking the latest chapter in a relationship that began when the Amapiano artist was named Diesel’s ambassador for the South African market in 2024.
The Product Line In The Capsule
The capsule brings together graphic T-shirts and long-sleeve styles, denim, sweats, outerwear, a cap and the S-D-Ollie Low sneaker. A recurring mouth and grill motif anchors the collection, with vivid graphics ranging from oversized artwork on T-shirts and outerwear to more subtle detailing across denim and sweats.
Daliwonga’s handwritten signature adds a personal touch across apparel and on the S-D-Ollie Low sneaker. Together, these details connect his identity with Diesel’s approach to individuality and self-expression.
The Concept Behind The Capsule
The concept also extends beyond print. A custom silver upper grill engraved with Diesel was created specifically for Daliwonga for the campaign, while the S-D-Ollie Low features silver grill-inspired hardware threaded through its laces alongside his signature on the side of the sneaker.
The Diesel x Daliwonga capsule launches on October 9 exclusively at the newly redesigned Diesel Sandton City store in Johannesburg, coinciding with the store’s official opening celebration. The collection will be available from October 10 at Diesel stores across South Africa and online at diesel.co.za.
