Galahad Clark is a cobbler by birth and trade who is on a mission to change the way we connect with the earth through a shoe inspired by the sand bushmen of the Kalahari Desert. In this episode of Hope Springs, the co-founder of Vivo Barefoot talks about what he learned from indigenous people, about his Quaker roots grounded in the Clark shoes legacy and about a little film called Shoespiracy with a big message: like Big Agriculture and Big Pharma, Big Shoe with its big, padded soles is quite literally disconnecting us from the natural world. We learn that had it not been for his mother’s sudden illness and death when Galahad was just twenty, he might never have found his way into making a shoe honouring our connection with the land.
