It is said that he literally walked through most of Southern Africa unifying people and spreading his doctrine wherever he went. In his later days, he founded a leadership academy to which tribes would eagerly send their young princes to be taught by the wise and respected leader. It is through this initiative that a protégé by the name of Moshoeshoe, the son of a minor chief, became one of the greatest leaders South Africa had ever known. Our pair of shoes is named after this wise man Mohlomi - ‘Walk with me'Apart from the inspiration of the sage man Mohlomi, my mother worked at a Shoe Factory for about 5 years (1996 -2001) while simultaneously selling offal (mala moholu or likahare) so my siblings and I can have a better future. As you might be aware shoe making has various steps namely; designing, stamping, sewing, assembling and showroom. She was in the sewing (hand sewing) unit. This was a commissioned or target based work as the more shoes she sewed the better the weekly wage. So they were allowed to take bags full of pieces (materials to be sewn to make shoes)home to work on them overnight. So at home it was my father, me, Pheko (younger brother) then when the old lady arrived at home she knew there was enough manpower for her to reach targets or finish the material overnight. This is where my love for shoe making was ignited. But then 20 years later the seed she planted on shoe making just germinated. Her Legacy Lives On 👑 🔥
