Known as one of Orlando Pirates' top fashionistas, here's a breakdown of Thabang Monare's more recent streetwear outfit.
The story
The 34-year-old is in his third year with the Buccaneers since joining the club in 2020 from Bidvest Wits. Having won back-to-back MTN8 trophies with the side already, silverware has not been the Mpumalanga-born star's only forte since moving to the Soweto giants.
Nicknamed Desh, the playmaker boasts dashing fashion sense which isn't limited to just one type of style. Although he often steals attention with his formalwear outfits, streetwear is also one of his preferred playgrounds, as he tends to look overly vibrant when rocking some fine casual.
This week, he posted an Instagram story dressed in a groovy combo comprising graffiti print top, torn and dirty blue jeans, as well as punk style sneakers.

His t-shirt is by Gallery Dept. and is said to cost around an affordable R500. Given his taste in premium wear, it's encouraging to see that the player appreciates clothes more than it's status or reputation. While being glitzy and glamorous is also inspiring, too much of it can make famous people less relatable. Given his occupation as a footballer, being relatable to fans is a a bit of currency as it tends to have an impact on how one is perceived.
The drip breakdown is not only about being dressed in expensive outfit, but it is also about uniqueness and the compelling parts of individual dress sense.
Overall, Monare's outfit resembles punk-style fashion, which can overlap to streetwear. There are various sub-categaries of this dress style, including garage punk, hardcore punk rock, glam punk, street punk, goth punk, state punk, and pop punk.
It is maybe surprising that almost every type of outfit can be defined and categorised but is unclear whether Monare is consciously aware of the varying styles.
It is needless to say that the maestro always understands the assignment and he is the type of guy you could tag along anywhere due to his super swaggy fashion!
