In this conversation we are joined in studio by Katleho Makopo, the powerhouse founder behind Calfame & Co., a bold new South African fashion brand that’s rewriting the rules of boys' clothing.



Born from love, perseverance, and a deep desire to see young boys represented in vibrant, expressive fashion, Calfame & Co. challenges outdated stereotypes and brings colour, character, and quality to the boys' apparel space. Inspired by her son and backed by experience in sales, recruitment, and business strategy, Katleho turned a personal mission into a growing brand now stocked online and on Takealot.
