Johannesburg, South Africa –GALXBOY Opens Sandton Flagship, Cementing Its Status as a South African Streetwear Giant From underground roots to Sandton City—GALXBOY just hit a major milestone. The cult streetwear label, founded by Thatiso Dube in 2008, has officially opened its flagship store in the heart of Joburg’s business district. What started as a bold slogan on a T-shirt is now a full-blown cultural force, with 14 stores across the country and a community that stretches far beyond our borders.
GALXBOY has always stood for owning your truth,” says Dube. “We’re not just selling clothes—we’re building a movement.”
The Sandton launch isn’t just another retail rollout—it’s a flex. A signal that South African street culture belongs in the country’s most elite spaces. Designed with a clean, modern edge, the store mirrors GALXBOY’s signature energy: youthful, rebellious, unapologetically local.
This new space brings the full range of GALXBOY heat: from graphic tees and luxe hoodies to limited drops and accessories. And now, it sits right next to some of the biggest global fashion names—proof that the streets aren’t just watching, they’ve arrived.
“Opening in the financial capital of South Africa is huge for the brand and our journey thus far,” says Thatiso Dube, founder and creative director of GALXBOY.
“We’re not just opening another store in another mall, we are creating a cultural destination, a space where fashion, identity and even ambition all collide. GALXBOY has always stood for owning your truth, and what better place to embody that than the heart of Joburg’s innovation and business scene,Sandton.”
