Blesbok 3 Capri LeggingsDesign The blesbok or blesbuck (Damaliscus pygargus phillipsi) is an antelope endemic to South Africa. It has a distinctive white face and forehead which inspired the name, because bles is the Afrikaans word for a blaze such as one might see on the forehead of a horse. The horns in this design are placed on a solid black surface creating a bold but sophisticated effect.
