New Work: Springboks x Nike

One flag, five languages, one jersey — shot by LAMPOST. This year's Nike Springbok jersey carries the lyrics of Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika in all five languages, laid out in the shape of the flag.

Capturing this campaign took a LAMPOST crew working at its sharpest: Zander Opperman behind the lens, backed by producers, stylists and make-up artists who know exactly what a moment like this calls for. Drawing on the full depth of our LAMPOST books, Papama Mtwisha led styling while hair and make-up artists Bassie Seripe and Shakirah Sithole made sure every player looked stadium-ready.

Bringing a campaign of this scale to life took LAMPOST's production team working in tandem from the first scout to the final frame. Executive producer Jodie Ennik and producer Anika Reinecke steered the shoot from concept through execution, keeping thirteen Springbok players, a full crew and a tight schedule moving like a well-oiled machine. It's the kind of coordination that doesn't show up on camera but makes everything in front of it possible.

A jersey isn't just a jersey. It's a flag, a language, a country worn on the chest. This is what LAMPOST does best: partnering with brands who understand that scale means nothing without meaning, and turning that understanding into work worth remembering – built, as always, on the strength of the talent who show up to make it real.
