They should learn to engage their inner creativity and strive to solve the incessant unemployment problem instead of being the problem,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>A maestro in his own right, Michael skillfully designs the sandals in record time. He has mastered the art of making the sandal, taking only 30 minutes to design men\u2019s sandals and almost a day to complete women\u2019s sandals due to the beadwork. His creativity knows no bounds as he has ventured into wedge heeled sandals to keep up with the latest fashion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/campus\/files\/2014\/11\/mike-workshop.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9384 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/campus\/files\/2014\/11\/mike-workshop-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"mike workshop\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/thesauce\/files\/2014\/11\/mike-workshop-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/thesauce\/files\/2014\/11\/mike-workshop.jpg 336w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>His unique designs have landed Eco Sandals a partnership deal with apparel firm, Levi Strauss to help in its marketing endeavors.<\/p>\n<p>What really makes eco sandals stand out from others is the level of craftsmanship and high quality of the sandals.
