S4 Ep12 - Gutta Soles footwear for Pat Thomas and the Kwashibu Area Band - pt3

Gutta Soles' name is inspired by Ghana's open gutters and the idea that although they may be filled with rubbish, there is treasure to be found. <br/><br/>For founder Kromanteng, there is added symbolism in that Ghana's gutters are open - not closed, which means there is an opportunity for everyone to pull themselves out of their current situation.<br/><br/>The Gutta Soles brand has its operations in Accra, Ghana. The shoes are made from car tyres, ntuma (cloth), organic cotton and rubber. I spoke to founder Kromanteng about his brand. <br/><br/>All images used with the consent of Gutta Soles.
