About Us

Who We Are

Sloag is a black owned business that started in late 2019, by two professional multimedia designers Marika Burton & Simba Kuguwe. Sloag drives in creating unisex and sustainable everyday wear street fashion. All their designs are original and 90% of the designs are designed and printed handmade by owners Marika and Simba. 

Backstory

Marika and Simba have been professional freelance designers since 2009. After finishing university and gaining her Graphic Design BA Hons, Marika was lucky enough to be given a full-time job in her profession straight away. It was then that she realised that designing within limits was not something that made her feel happy and with both Marika and Simba being in the design industry independently and commercially felt mutual feelings. A few years prior, they started drop shipping and branching out into the world of e-commerce however this didn’t last long. They wanted something that was their own.

Marika and Simba saw this as an opportunity to create their own artwork and design pieces that would express their passion. They quickly invested into their own t-shirt stock, their own equipment, dyes etc… and taught themselves how to create their own graphic tee's and started to print their designs on their t-shirts and make it available to the public. 

To their surprise this was very well received and still is now. Sloag is very proud of where they are now but believe they have a very long way to go in terms of development and creating a 100% sustainable brand.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is straight to the point: fashion has no limitations, don’t take things too seriously. We’ve got a wardrobe that allows you to dress comfortable at home and still look good enough to go out.

Giving Back

We hand print our designs using vinyl which is 100% sustainable. Any items that are returned to us damaged or unsellable for any reason are washed and donated to the homeless as our way of giving back to the community so you will never have to feel guilty about affecting the planet we live in when buying from us. We also package our items using poly-bags which are 100% recyclable.
