Stylish and talented model and designer Masego “Maps” Maponyane maps out his favourite things that he absolutely can’t live without.
Watch Collection
My collection of watches is one of my favourite things. Whether retro, classic or modern, they all mean something and are important to me. I value time and I always try to be as efficient with it as possible, so having a love for watches is fitting.
Spectacles
To be honest I’m blind without my spectacles so I always have a pair on my face. Furthermore they have really grown to be a part of me and a trademark of what makes me distinguishable. I can’t go anywhere without them.
Necklace
I have a Thomas Sabo necklace that I have on every second of everyday. The pendants on the necklace are a sword and skull. The message is personal and it’s almost become my lucky charm that I keep close to my heart. The sentiment it holds is one of the things that keeps me motivated.
My OCD Suit Collection
I never thought that I would have been a part of something like my new OCD suit collection with Augustine this soon. I had visions to perhaps collaborate in a similar vain of design and creative directing a few years from now with a brand, but when the opportunity and hunger presented itself I knew I had to take the gap and I’m happy I have a collection of suits with my name attached to them that I can be proud of.
Socks
I have a sock obsession and I have many different colours, shapes and designs. Socks are versatile; they’re comforting, add to whatever clothing you wear and essential.
Food
I’m obsessed with food. In particular ribs or home cooked meals with roasted or fried chicken always hits the spot.
My Bed
I don’t get much time to sleep, and I like things that way because it means I’m being productive. But when I’ve been travelling a lot or had a long and hectic day, there’s no better feeling then being able to sleep in my bed.
All Stars
These are just classic and a staple that everyone should have. I have a few and they always do the job when you need to throw on a pair of versatile casual shoes.
Tiger of Sweden Suits
I’ve always loved the Tiger suits since I first saw them as a kid looking forward to wearing suits. I told myself I would one day be able to work hard and own one. Now I value all the ones I own.
Lanvin Cardigan
I have a Lanvin cardigan that’s vintage and from the 80s. It was once my dad’s and it means a lot to me.
BackPacks
I have a collection of backpacks and travel duffel bags that I use to carry all my goods and it just make things convenient.
My Brother
The person I’m closest to in my life and it would be hard to life without him.
