Historic First African Pride Sneakers

The classic African Pride Canvas sneaker was created to honor the legacy of Black leaders and Black history. Drawing inspiration from the Pan-African flag created by Marcus Garvey in 1920, the red black green symbol is more than a color scheme. It is a political movement that calls for African control of African communities.

Nagast Footwear, a Black Owned Sneaker Company, released the Historic First African Pride sneaker in 2015. The classic Red Black and Green African Canvas sneaker is a collector's item that captures a moment in time when CEO, Tarik Edmonson became a part of our history.

“My inspiration came back in 2014, I saw all of the other big sneaker companies, and thought that a sneaker product featuring the red, black and green would make an impact,” Tarik explains.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ON SIZING

Default sizing you see is of male's size. If you're female, the rule is to order a "minus 2" size. For example, if your female size is 8 then you must order a size 6 shoes.
