Welcome to Shelflife
Shelflife story
Shelflife is South Africa’s leading premium sneaker and streetwear store.
Established in 2006 in Cape Town, our store and brand grew from strength to strength, opening our second door in the heart of Johannesburg after 10 years of business.
While we expanded our brick and mortar locations, we also grew our online store to offer the very best in exclusive sneakers and apparel to every corner of Africa and the world. Our store was founded on graffiti and street art, which is still a priority for us to promote the scene in South Africa. Shelflife holds the rights to Montana Colors spray paint imported directly from Barcelona, Spain. We are the official Montana paint stockists for South Africa.
