History
uMhlanga, meaning “place of reeds” in the isiZulu language, has transformed into a primary economic hub of Durban. This residential, commercial, and resort town is home to the Gateway Theatre of Shopping, the largest mall in the Southern Hemisphere, and the second-tallest skyscraper in South Africa, Pearl Sky. This backpack captures that spirit of bold modernity and aspirational living.
