Bucs midfielder Kabelo Dlamini is proving that his taste in fashion goes far beyond the comfort-wear and laidback sport fits. Known for his streetwear aesthetic and eye-catching PUMA-inspired fits on Instagram, the Buccaneers playmaker appears to be stepping into a more refined era of fashion.

"Shenko" recently linked up with celebrated designer Tshepo Mashego, the founder and creative force behind Relevance For Men — the luxury tailored suits and footwear brand that has become a staple among South African sports stars and celebrities.

Mashego gave fans a glimpse into the collaboration by posting snaps alongside the injured Pirates midfielder on both Instagram and X. The designer also shared behind-the-scenes moments of Dlamini being fitted for a pair of sleek loafers before later uploading a gallery of the midfielder undergoing a tailored shirt fitting.

"Doing fittings with the injured Orlando Pirates midfielder Kabelo Dlamini," Mashego captioned his X post, sparking speculation that a stylish collaboration could be on the cards.

The pairing marks an interesting style evolution for Dlamini, whose fashion identity has largely leaned towards streetwear and sporty luxury. With Mashego's polished tailoring expertise now in the mix, fans could soon see the Orlando Pirates star embracing a more sophisticated, formal aesthetic.

Mashego's brand has previously dressed high-profile names including Lebohang Maboe, Sibusiso Vilakazi, Springbok captain Siya Kolisi and rugby star Makazole Mapimpi, further cementing Relevance For Men's status as one of Mzansi's leading menswear labels.

Whether it's a one-off fitting or the beginning of a full fashion partnership, one thing is clear — Kabelo Dlamini's style game is entering a whole new league.
