One Durban-born label is doing what fast fashion won't: premium heavyweight basics, sourced in Southern Africa, where 20% of every Rand goes straight to orphaned and vulnerable children.
Heads up: OCC drops sell out fast. If your size is still in stock, don't sleep on it.Every OCC tee is cut from premium heavyweight cotton — holds its shape, gets softer with every wash, still looks sharp a year later. The Carpenter Pants? Reinforced stitching, workwear-grade fabric, built to take a beating.
Quality you'd expect from brands charging R1,500+ for a tee. OCC starts at R599.
20% of OCC's revenue goes to the OCC Foundation, partnering with LIV Village — rescuing, restoring, and raising orphaned and vulnerable children across SA since 2011.
Buy a R699 Origin Tee → roughly R140 changes a child's life. No middlemen. Direct impact.
Born in Durban, manufactured in Southern Africa. Finished in Durban with custom prints , embroidery and labels. Your money stays in the local economy — not on a cargo ship from overseas.
Plus, the OCC Fashion Academy is training orphaned young South Africans to build careers in fashion. The clothing creates the pipeline for the next generation.
OCC drops are limited. Once it's gone, it's gone.
Shop the CollectionOCC has become one of SA's fastest-growing streetwear labels — not through paid influencer posts, but because the product speaks for itself.
In 1997, a SA sports star named Tich Smith — who'd lost everything to alcohol — got a second chance. He used it to build LIV Village ("Lungisisa Indlela" — The Right Way) in KZN.
Since 2011, LIV has grown across Durban, Gauteng, Western Cape, and Eastern Cape — impacting over 17,500 lives last year alone. OCC exists to fuel this mission.
"If business, government and the church work together, we can put a roof over every orphan's head, give them a mother who will love them, and this nation will be changed forever."— Tich Smith, LIV Founder

A R300 tee replaced 3x a year = R900 + landfill. A R699 OCC Origin Tee lasts years and changes a child's life.
Tees, sweaters, hoodies, carpenter pants, jackets, caps — all in earth tones that work with everything you own.
The OCC Foundation is building a Fashion Academy — teaching orphaned young South Africans pattern-cutting, production, and design. The clothing creates jobs that train the very children the brand serves.
Rescue a child. Restore a life. Raise a leader. Release a star. That's not a slogan. That's the business model.
OCC runs limited drops — no restocking until the next collection. 24 products across tees, sweats, bottoms, jackets, headwear. Some sizes and colourways have already sold out.
You've read this far. You already know this isn't just another brand. The only question is whether you act before your size disappears.
Premium heavyweight basics. 20% to orphaned children.
