Dale Raine

One of our favourite parts of what we do is hearing the story behind an order. 🤍

These Est. In Name sweaters were made as a Father’s Day gift and part of the order was the embroidery for the sleeve - so I couldn’t help but look up the Bible verse that they chose to have embroidered.

“Direct your children onto the right path and when they are older, they will not leave it.” - Proverbs 22:6

And it stopped me for a moment.

To most people, it’s just a few words stitched onto a sleeve.
But to the family who ordered it, it’s a prayer, a reminder, a legacy.

It’s moments like these that remind us why we love what we do.

A date tells a story.
A name tells a story.
And sometimes, a single verse carries a lifetime of hope.

Thank you for trusting us with the moments that matter most.

At Dale Raine, we are not just creating and embroidering sweaters - we’re stitching together stories that families will carry with them for years to come. 🤍🧵

When the doctor prescribes more greens... we understood the assignment. 💚

With the colder weather settling in across South Africa, we’d like to remind you to keep up with your greens this winter.

Whether that’s spinach...
or adding a few green sweaters to your wardrobe... we will let you decide. 😉

Our green sweaters may not count towards your five-a-day... but they do make winter a whole lot warmer.

Here’s to staying warm, making memories, and embracing all the greens this winter. 🧵

What is more precious than siblings matching?

There’s something so special about watching siblings grow up together and we love knowing that our sweaters get to be a small part of those moments.

Whether it’s for family photos, a new sibling announcement, a holiday or simply because they (or their mom) love matching.

Made from 100% cotton, locally sourced and locally made in Cape Town, our embroidered sweaters are designed to be worn and loved.

One day they will outgrow the sweaters, but they will never outgrow the memories they made in them 🤍

With these two fabrics... we made this 🧵

I will be honest... I wasn’t convinced that the Charcoal and Khaki fabrics would work together.

But seeing the finished sweaters? 😍

Safe to say I was proven wrong.

Made for a Father’s Day gift, these two-tone sweaters are a reminder that sometimes the combinations you least expect become your favourites.

Locally made, 100% cotton and stitched with love in Cape Town 🤍

How are we keeping our heads above water this busy season? 🤿

Honestly...we’re not entirely sure.

A few flippers. Some goggles. A giant inflatable. And one incredible team. 🤍

The last few weeks have been busy, exciting, chaotic and filled with orders that represent families, memories, gifts and stories.

And while there are days that feel a little overwhelming, I’m constantly reminded how grateful I am for the team behind Dale Raine.

Thank you to for the care, love and hard work you put into every single item we make.

This little business wouldn’t be what it is without you.

Now if you’ll excuse us, we’ve got some swimming to do 🏊‍♀️

One day the sweaters will be packed away, the kiddies will be taller and these moments will be memories 🤍

Until then...
Buy the matching family sweaters. Take the matching family photos. Go on matching adventures.

Made for Dad, Mom, Big Bro, Big Sister and Little Sister 🤍

This order reminded me that the best things in life aren’t things at all - they’re the people we get to share them with.

In case you missed it... we do bulk orders too.

From sports teams and hockey tours to school groups, staff uniforms, and special events, we love helping bring your ideas to life.

Every bulk order starts with an idea. A logo. A slogan. A team name. A vision.

And we get the privilege of turning that into something tangible.

Made from 100% cotton, locally sourced and locally made in Cape Town.

If I don’t reply to your email, WhatsApp, or message straight away... there’s a good chance I am busy doing this.

Sorting orders. Framing garments. Setting up embroidery. Double-checking names, dates, and details.

There is so much that happens behind the scenes before an item is ready to make its way to its new home 🤍

While we do our best to respond as quickly as possible, sometimes our hands are busy creating the very items you’re messaging us about.

Thank you for your patience, your kindness, and your support.

We see every message, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we’re able 🤍
