Our summer collection was inspired by the Kenyan landscape & wildlife. We were drawn to the vibrant colors we see throughout nature: the touches of pink were inspired by flocks of pink flamingos wading in the Soda Lakes near Mai Mahiu. Our bright yellows came from sunny yellow Sesbania trees in bloom & Kenyan yellow weaver birds flying around the factory in the early morning. These colors fill us with joy and we cannot wait to wear them all summer long.

By far the best shoe we’ve ever made. The only shoe we’ve ever made.  Now in partnership with (RED)...

Versatile, casual, and comfortable, the Afridrilles are constructed from top quality materials with a dash of Kenyan flair. And while every pair of shoes we make empowers the women who make them, our (UBUNTU LIFE)RED really stand out for one important reason: These shoes save lives. 20% of each sale goes to the Global Fund to support their fight against HIV and AIDS. 

This is the first shoe we've ever made with extensive Maasai beadwork directly on the canvas, and the result is stunning. The perfect holiday gift for someone you love... or for yourself.
