It is time for National Tekkie Tax day!

Why wear uncomfotable shoes when you can rock your tekkies for a good cause!

Swap those high heels, work shoes and school shoes for your favourite comfy pair of tekkies, and join the worthy cause of Tekkie Tax this year – you’ll be helping to protect the vulnerable.

Participating means that you need to choose your sticker, get a pair of funky Tekkie Tax shoelaces and wear your takkies on Friday 26 May 2017.

The Flooze, Snotkop, Lloyd Cele, Anatii and Jak de Priester are only some of the many celebs who have joined the project and they are ready to make a difference with the rest of South Africa.
