Oliberte Footwear
A safari on your feet
Africa's a pretty popular place to get involved these days,
from Bono starting poverty-eliminating charities, to Oprah
building schools, to Madonna stealing all the kids who're
meant to go to them. Now do your part via sneakers, with
Oliberte.
The first brand to market premium footwear completely made
in Africa, Oliberte's helping empower locals by
training/paying them to craft stylin' shoes using materials
sourced from around their continent, with designs inspired
by street and European culture, so don't be shocked when
your sneakers take up smoking and start tagging your
apartment. The collection starts with the Rovia (in navy,
white, red, or cream & tan), a driving-shoe-esque number
with an Ethiopian cow leather upper, goat leather interior,
and Liberian crepe rubber soles; they've also got two
slightly different versions made using "nicer" materials,
like the Rovia-L, in grey nubuck or "antique brown", and the
Rovia-S, made exclusively in shiny black sheep leather,
which undergoes a complex tanning process The Situation
would astutely describe as "TTT". Things get rugged-er with
the ankle-high "classic desert boot" Abido available in
navy, grey, or brown with a supple goat leather lining and
special recycled crepe soles they refer to as "the grill",
and Paul Wall refers to as "the only reason you even know
who I am".
To quell your debilitating eco-conscience, once your pair's
all worn out Oliberte'll arrange to have them shipped back
and recycled into new stock, because we are living in a
material world, and they are a material girl.
They've got free shipping until the end of the month. Check
'em out and use code THRILLIST to get 10% off at Oliberte.com.
