We’re proud to introduce the Msosizwa blanket — the latest addition to our Ndebele blanket collection. This new design was inspired by Mme Sophie Mahlangu, whose vision guided its development from concept to creation.
Crafted from 100% acrylic, the Msosizwa blanket shares the same trusted composition as our Umbhalo blanket and the familiar size of the Mini-Umbhalo (110cm x 130cm). It features bold Umbhalo-style colour stripes on each side and is available in a vibrant selection of colours, allowing customers to celebrate individuality while honouring heritage.
The blanket was officially previewed at the 45th annual King Silamba commemoration on 1 March 2025, where Aranda presented it to the Ndebele King. In a moving tribute, His Majesty requested that Her Majesty award the blankets to outstanding Ndebele women making a positive impact in their communities. The blanket received an enthusiastic response at the event, where we also had a retail stand. The Msosizwa blanket will be officially launched on 27 June at Mme Sophie’s residence in Kwa-Ndebele, and stock is already available. As part of our marketing strategy, early consumer feedback has confirmed its appeal and cultural significance.
The Msosizwa blanket offers a unique blend of cultural significance and modern appeal — a compact, easy-to-wear design with bold traditional styling, perfect for customers looking to stand out at any ceremonial or heritage event.
