There are plenty of kicks on deck for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, but what about shoes *from* the second largest continent? Enter SAWA Sneakers, the first sneakers 100% made in Africa. Typically, you’d see African materials shipped elsewhere to make the kicks, but these joints are made in Africa, with native resources. Expect them to release at some of the globe’s most exclusive retailers, like Wood Wood and Comme des Garcons.
