SA’s largest Women’s Day celebration, the Totalsports Women’s Race, will take place across three cities (Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Durban) on National Women’s Day (Tuesday 09 August 2022) and title sponsor Totalsports is excited to announce that each entrant will receive an official event t-shirt that was produced locally by TFG’s Prestige Clothing.
“The Totalsports Women’s Race is known for its striking pink event t-shirts and this year we are extremely proud of the fact that all the t-shirts were produced locally by TFG’s Prestige Clothing,” confirms Jonathan Stein, Totalsports Head of Business. “Five Prestige Clothing Durban production lines, consisting of 95 employees, produced the 21 000 t-shirts that runners and walkers will wear across three cities on National Women’s Day. It is especially fitting that 91 of the employees are female and that the race shirts were made by women, for women, in celebration of all women in the country. We are excited to see thousands of women proudly wearing their pink event t-shirts on the event day in support of PinkDrive #LoveTheRun with the Totalsports Women’s Race.”
“It gives us great pleasure as a local manufacturer to produce the t-shirts for a well-known and much-loved local event,” says Graham Choice Head: TFG Design Centre, TFG Manufacturing and Prestige Clothing. “It gives our team a sense of pride to see the garments we produced, worn by so many amazing women on National Women’s Day. We are especially proud to see some of our own ladies wearing the t-shirts on the day of the race. When running (or walking) your race, know that we are supporting you all the way.”
More about TFG Prestige Clothing: Started in 1989, TFG’s Prestige Clothing is the manufacturing arm of TFG (The Foschini Group). There are five manufacturing plants (Caledon, Maitland, Epping, Johannesburg, and Durban) across three provinces.
