Growing up in an informal settlement of Ivory Park, Lekau Sehoana, didn’t have any shoes to wear. He then saw an old torn sneaker and redesigned it using Denim and Polyurethane. This sneaker became a local hit and led him to making an entry into the shoe making business and exchanging pain for profit , for the next 5 Years of his High School life. A few years later, Drip was born and he built it to be an award winning company it is today.
