A sacred dance between earth and element - Mama Kea Umhlaba neSiliva is a tribute to African soil and silver, two timeless gifts from the land that sustains and shines.

Crocheted by hand in orange and shimmering silvers, this design speaks to the depth of our roots and the value of what lies beneath. Umhlaba (the land) grounds us; iSiliva (silver) reminds us of our worth.

Crafted with ancestral weaving techniques passed through generations, these shoes are made sustainably by a collective of elders and youth, echoing tradition while walking toward the future.

Wear them as a reminder: You are grounded. You are precious. You carry the land with you.

Made for all genders
Woven with pride. Rooted in legacy. Walked in power.

The shoe is made from nylon and rubber sole. Available sizes are UK/SA size 5-11. Lower sizes are available on request.
