“I started with the business in November 2018. When the demand escalated I began to manufacture more products. People love my designs. Some prefer to wear them for traditional weddings and gatherings. My products are stylish and also depict our rich heritage. They are also worn as casual shoes.” He revealed that he learned the art from his big brother, who is a dressmaker.
“He showed me how to do designing and I perfected the skill. I have an assistant to help me and on a good productive day, we can manufacture up to 50 pairs of shoes. If you prefer your own design, we can custom make it for you. Our sandals are of top quality and they are affordable. A pair is only R150,” added Musingwini.
