A Nigerian shoemaker has gone viral and earned praise on social media after showcasing his beautiful work. Based in Kaduna, the young man shared his impressive boots that caught people’s attention.
The shoes resemble Timberland, prompting one user to offer to buy a pair for N200,000 instead of the actual cost, which is N30,000.
A Kaduna-based shoemaker has gained social media visibility after posting a pair of shoes he made.
In a post on X, the shoemaker, Aaron Danjuma, stated that the shoes cost N30,000.
The beautiful shoes stunned social media users because they looked as beautiful as Timberland boots.

“Make a prototype, allocate sizes and measurements to each component, choose a unique material and 4 different colour layouts, register a CAC, gather 5 investors to give you $2k each, send $8k to China and let them make the shoes in bulk under strict QA, do QA again. Start a brand.”

“These are amazing absolutely love it… But brother, take this advice. Buy a chemical nose mask and safety eye goggles, or make a full-screen shield. Your health is more important than your passion. No lung transplant in today’s science field, ohhh.”
