Boity Celebrates the Launch of Bathu’s New Volt Pack in Style

Boity Thulo joined guests in Johannesburg to celebrate the launch of the Volt Pack, a new sneaker range from Bathu. The event brought together media personalities, influencers and invited guests to mark the introduction of the latest collection from the South African footwear brand.

Bathu was founded by entrepreneur Theo Baloyi and first gained attention for its township-inspired sneaker designs. The company began in Alexandra and has since expanded with stores across South Africa, becoming one of the country’s locally founded sneaker brands with a strong retail presence.

During the launch event, Thulo was introduced as the ambassador for the Volt collection. Her association with the brand follows years of public support for Bathu and its founder.

At the launch, Thulo appeared on stage wearing a structured grey blazer dress layered over a buttoned shirt and tie. The outfit was cinched at the waist with a wide burgundy belt detailed with metal studs. She paired the look with white athletic sneakers from the collection and minimal jewellery.

Speaking at the event, she described the collaboration as a natural progression after watching the company grow from a small business into a national retail brand.

The Volt Pack includes three sneaker models: the V-120, V-180 and V-240. Each design incorporates the bright Volt colour concept used throughout the range. The sneakers combine mesh uppers with lightweight construction and colour accents intended to reflect current streetwear preferences.

Baloyi said customer feedback influenced elements of the new designs. According to the founder, the company regularly gathers responses from its customers when developing new products, using that input when refining styles and materials.

The launch took place at a Johannesburg venue decorated with colourful lighting and display installations presenting the Volt Pack designs. Guests were able to view the sneakers up close while music and DJ sets continued throughout the evening.

For Thulo, the partnership adds to a career that spans television, music and entrepreneurship. In addition to her entertainment work, she has been involved in several business ventures and brand collaborations over the years.

The Volt Pack sneakers are now available through Bathu stores and online, marking the latest product release from the South African footwear company.
