The Makarapa is s hand-cut and hand-painted hard hat worn by sports fans. They belong to the typical South African Football fan's supporters gear, and are increasingly popular with fans of other sports. Sport fans spend hours to sculpt and paint their makarapa in the colours and emblem of their clubs or country. Besides the makarapa, fans also wear giant glasses or have shields with team slogans and logos. This poster illustrates the particular social commentary that was current at the time in South Africa during the Confederations Cup.
