I was breaking my shoes fast every month, my family couldn’t afford new shoes every month, I started thinking about how to make it more durable, and visited a shoe maker in my city. In the meantime, at the skate park, they were a group of people making screen-printed t-shirts. I know how to make shoes, so I make shoes for my friends, but even without knowing that what I was building this what I’ll call a brand when I’m an adult.
