these are standing. thank you so much. and nigeria is busting business since ash, april go. my legal is leading the charge with his eco friendly suit. read with sustainable pros. this is an eco friendly materials. it will got is set to lead, said thing, the green stab, it's ready to step into the future of fashion in a time of fast fashion and an ever growing footstep of the industry. how do these shoes combine esthetics with sustainability and traditional craftmanship? one of the things that i love to do is ethical production. and for us i think of production in the is making sure that we work with our hands sent out by skills and techniques. and also we have to but and about the materials we use and that's why

we making the frame and deliver it will come on monday. co started working in the fashion industry in 2012 as an intern 2 in lagos fashion week. after working for several brands, he founded his own label. molly cool. where just his passion for fashion come from me. self thoughts, designer. so that was why he was so important for me to sort of like get experience hands on during the 1st one week. so i will walk back stage, i will see this town, but as i was dream then i realize that the window and shoot design is the way home go. now the time that i'm doing as much as what the, including design has been doing. and i just pulled my my attention, it made me realize that basically needs and that was where i started like designing shoes. all my local freshman activity just comes from festival,

my interaction with people, and also just the community around where i find myself from lee goes to the east where i grew up and then to the nice way i i stayed, you know, all of these experiences. i had just made me little freshman different due to the constant rise and inflation. designers such as april class have had to source materials in their back yard to bring down the import costs of buying materials. they would typically order from overseas. so how has able, can manage to build an eco conscious brand and nigeria focusing on sustainability? we use the motion markets and the markets. that's as a well known and major. yeah. you know, i'm still getting legal. and so that is, i mean, self, sal and we get our lives from nigeria and let their rates

as one of the highest quality globally. and there were consistent suppliers to europe and asia. yet it is mostly produced in the north of the country and comes from goats and sheep. however, in the foot of your sector, the country only owns an estimated 10 percent share of the domestic market. so why is it important for able cost to go with the sustainable route but also produce quality work to meet you as helps us to really view it was possible. i'm quite sure brand in the sense that we make use of like so simple materials our ethical practices that we have, you know, imbibed by and gives, you know, look glasses and i'm trying to please of these crafts and also 0 with the policy it because all my, the quote designs be spoke bold and beautiful shoes for foot. we're especially for users who like to stand out from manufacturing the issue up to the final touches.

every part of the production is done by local artisans is that strikes and he's supposed to be paying to know whether the and so we feelings to the soul. does he have coverage? and you know, the way he's doing it. now, if he doesn't feed, he will also try to adjust to his designs are rooted in nigerian culture and traditions. yet modern and timeless the hand me shoes and sandals can be ordered worldwide. when i started, it was, i was even, you know, thinking that i would get to the point where really, you know, going to be in this phase or be like right now. and for each day, there's always a need for me to really work hard and making sure that these are these crafts, these people i worked with. i really seen and heard all of the wall choosing the sustainable route and the shoot designing process is not only

a reflection of personal values and believes, but also response to global trends. aligning with the imperative to reduce the environmental footprint of the fashion industry. it because the foot rarely the lasting impression on the world. one the echoes a commitment to both style and sustainability. a gorgeous and eco friendly shoes. now that is the train to fall, or it's time to hit on a bird to smooth close on us. i'm soon caught out must that day as they show us what they have for us. going to called chick and myself screwed up and on the, on an epic road trip as we travel across is done see from city driving to do gushing. last which is green, we explode the very best of a lot of beautiful country. it has to offer that they look pretty like, you know, trip the case. they didn't compete without
