Kenya’s has the best runners of the world and a lot of research has been conducted into the secret of their success.

This is why a pair of social entrepreneurs is now aiming to make the first high-performance running shoe that will be made largely in Kenya and benefit Kenyans. The company, called Enda—“go” in Swahili—has launched the shoes with a $75,000 Kickstarter funding campaign.
