Something that has severely upset me over the years (yes, severely) is the lack of options for men everywhere. In fashion, grooming, shopping centers and general stores it’s all female-orientated.
Well, Mantality is different. It’s one for the guys. In a time when online stores are popping up all over the show its refreshing for me to see one targeted to the men in the audience.
The genre of products available is mightily impressive: Face, Hair, Health, Sex, Stuff, Gifts, Scents and many more. They allow for a wide variety of choice for the suave online male shopper.
I know this sounds like an advert for Mantality but I am just so blimming excited that there is a male-orientated store that I can’t help it. This SA initiative makes me proud and makes me happy. I am not being sexist when I say that I found a place online that I could call a shopping haven.
From the Mantality about section:
Mantality.co.za is the only place online where today’s South African man can get everything he could ever need and more. From men’s skin care and grooming products, to health and sport supplements, to fragrances and hair care products – whatever you’re after Mantality.co.za is there for you.
The idea for Mantality came about as a result of there being little to no shops (let alone online stores) dedicated purely to the more modern, style, health and image conscious man of South Africa. Most of the time South African male shoppers needed to buy their amenities from online stores in the UK, US and abroad. This proves to be not only expensive (as you are eligible for import duties upon arrival) but also quite a hassle – because you shouldn’t have to wait, approx 20 working days, for a package that may or may not actually arrive.
Because I am so excited about Mantality I had to contact the founder, James Mew and see what I could organise for all the SA Rocks male readers (Don’t worry ladies I’ve got something in the pipeline for you too)!
All you have to do is answer this simple question (the answer can be found at Mantality):
When ordering from Mantality.co.za, how long can one expect for their order to be delivered?
a) 5 working days
b) Next working day
c) 10-15 working days
Simply email me: editor@sarocks.co.za or James: james@Mantality.co.za or drop your comment below with an email address and your answer!

“…is the only place online where today’s South African man can get everything he could ever need and more…”
Err? Skin care, face creams & “dark circle corrector”. Are you sure this is a men’s shop?
Ah yes, it must be for those metrosexual “men”.

Us ladies buy stuff for our men too…I’d be keen to win this for my luscious boy. Some of those creams smell delicious. Get’s a girl all bothered and hot.

The site’s a bit NSFW with that big Fleshlight ad front and centre.

I usually vacillate between Aramis Lab Series and the Clinique Men’s range. Keen to try other brands.
And I’m hardly metro
I just don’t do the old skool: “a bar of Breeze is just fine for everything my boy” thing :]
And yeah, Faith Popcorn says we’re heading into the cocooning phase where we get our “stuff” to come to us. Malling suck more and more these days – bring on the Door to Door goodness!
