At VaaKenya our main priority is producing comfortable shoes for the African feet and the African climate. While shoe design is a big part of this, so is the material we use to make them. Denim is one of the world’s most iconic fabrics. The moment you say the words “denim jeans,” everyone around you knows what you’re talking about. Denim is popular across national and cultural boundaries. The reason for denim’s crossover success was its durability and repairability, which appealed to miners in the American West during the Gold Rush of the 1800s. This, however, means that even after getting discarded, the material’s non-biodegradability means it does more harm than good to the environment. Here at VaaKenya, we recycle the material to use in shoemaking. The material is ideal for use in making shoes for the African market. The high moisture-wicking quality of denim is one reason why. In addition to being breathable, Denim shoes quickly transfer sweat from your feet to the fabric before drying it out to ensure sweat doesn’t soak through the fabric. This ensures feet don’t stink even after walking across the very hot African terrain, keeping with our mission to dignify African feet.
The Boho denim half boot was inspired by an opportunity to combine a classic design- Chukka and a classic fabric- denim in one light, comfortable and warm boots! July cold has nothing on you when you got this!
Your comfort and style are our number one priority. Be it for work, official or social occasion, shoes need to be comfortable, practical, and stylish. Here at VaaKenya, we aim to make certain that our shoes are made with this in mind.
