COMPILED BY VISI
From trendy shoes that make a difference and a campaign to provide school children with desks to Nike’s female-only fitness club and a new local furniture range, here are the top VISI picks of the week series – week 19.
1. Vosk Shoes
It’s taken two years for Wesley Vos to launch his proudly South African brand Vosk Shoes. “We may love the simplicity of his designs, but what we really love is the fact that with every pair purchased Vosk Shoes gives a new pair of shoes to a child in need. Pretty awesome if you ask me,” says online editor Lindi Brownell Meiring.
