Wow 🤩 am impressed to see that the shoes are on share a sale.
I'm late let, Me watch and get inspired.
Africans are very creative may God continue to keep his hands upon you.
Wawoo am inspired am thinking to do same in Uganda .
I love my Africa ,a state of Africa indeed 🇰🇪👍👍
I was in New York and walked into a sneakers store hunting for rare Jordans. When I told the sales person that am originally from Kenya, he asked me if I knew Enda. To be honest I told him I don’t know that brand. To my surprise, he told me that’s a sneaker label from Kenya. That’s when I heard Enda for the first time. Unfortunately they were not selling the shoes in their store. But I was so proud to hear a Nike store salesman talk of Kenyan brand.
Wow
Wow!!
That's love
That's dope
We gotta leave Nike alone. They’ve used our bodies to become rich but do little for us other than pay individuals millions. She sounds like she has a communal mindset. She’s dope.
Considering Kenya's history of dominance in competitive running, it makes perfect sense for a running shoe to be made there. Bravo!
What he said
Hear!hear!👏💗
I agree absolutely
Exactly sir !
Exactly.
Now; imagine Keyan athletes rocking Kenyan-made wears in the Olympics! Wow....
Proud of her! Together, one moment at a time, we are changing the narrative ✊❤
You will soon hear no athletes should wear shoes made in Afrika.
You have to pay them to wear it, Nike sponsor them
@@kromahj wow
@@queenwere1 That would be madness!!
Yessir facts💯💯
This is why kenya is always among the top 4 in Africa despite not having minerals. Highly educated people and skilled man power. Was in the country last year and was mind blown. Much love from 🇦🇺
Bro it has highly educated people you don't something about Kenya.
Because our primary and secondary is free to learn you will not pay fees that is 70% of the country a educated
wow! we love you right back
They do not have minerals but they brain is the power much respect to Kenya from Ontario Canada via Jamaica
The is no african country that does not have a mineral resources. U are talking about the richest continent in the world.
Beautiful people all across the continent doing awesome work and creating makes me happy! Dope stuff bro!
Its true, but because we are not united, we dont know whats going on, even in neighbouring countries. Thank you youtubers fir filling in the gaps.
brings tears to my eyes
All these fancy speeches great. Would you encourage your fellow Nigerians to buy her product? Nigerians are very inward-looking.They only patronize Nigerian stores. Experience in USA has taught me that.
Thank you! One step at a time.
@@joshua-roger-clarence2243 at least they are buying black own shop and not Asia ones. I buy from a Nigerian shop here in Europe and I buy less from them. Am not even Nigerian but am supporting my black family business.
She’s so right the world cannot function without Africa. Most the resources coming from Africa. True.
I'm so proud to be Kenyan!!!🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Nawao👍🏽.
Go girl!!!mwaaahhhhh!!!
As a young person in the Diaspora I was brainwashed. I ENVY you. You should be proud 👏
This lady must be protected. She’s treasure to Africa.
Yes,from people like Nice.
Just ordered two pairs. Thank so much for making me aware of this company. GO AFRICA!!!!
I am a runner from Chad and love Kenya. Such a great country with amazing people and talented athletes that are too many to be named. This lady is brilliant and innovative. She makes Africans proud. I plan to buy a pair of enda running shoes and run in them. I hope to visit Kenya soon. # Africa must unite.
Karibu
Karibu Kenya bro and good luck in your athletics!
welcome
Awesome, you are the first commenter I have come across from CHAD! How exciting, we love Chad from Eritrean in Sweden.
@@theafricanlioness6709 Thank you.
Enda its also a Shona word means go , just the same.UNITED STATES OF AFRICA
Yes! 🇿🇼It sounds like “hendai”
I'm a black man in United States Of America. I'll buy those shoes!
Every black person in the world should buy these shoes! I definitely will ☺️.
Thanks brother 🙏
Me too
Just bought myself a pair! Great job!
tears came to my eyes watching these Kenyans making shoes and they look so good some of us Black Americans especially me I will buy a pair I used to be a runner when I was younger but I now ride my bike the tell the Boss Lady we are so proud of her and Kenya
I could spend all day writing about how beneficial this interview is for Africa and how visionary this young lady is. This is Wode Maya at his best.
Happy to know this comes with a dose of inspiration ☺️. Thank you.
@@EndaSportswearas a Pan-African entrepreneur, it was wonderful to see the African content creator who is at the top of his field interviewing one of the most visionary East African entrepreneurs in recent memory. There is no doubt in my mind--judging by your vision and intellect--that Enda will be one of the top running shoe brands in the world one day. Also, as a military man, I would recommend that you one day get a contract with the Kenyan military for their physical training uniforms like South Korea. Thanks for contributing to the Pan-African endeavor.
@@PanAfricanNews are u insane.
Woda Maya is changing the narrative. Featuring this woman. I need to buy new exercise shows. I have FOUND them 🤩
@@ginacoleman788I just saw them on the internet; they're available in the US, where I live. I also happen to be in the market for some dark running shoes for the fall. Thanks for the comment.
Did you guys see that the lady does not have long painted artificial finger nails?
No facial makeup, yet she's beautiful, industrious, intelligent. She's natural.
Aaahhhh you said it. I'm always saying the same they look beautiful without the artificial things. She's natural 👌❤
Kenyan women aren't really that into make-up.
Most women that have serious and worthy vision they are pursuing don't waste their time on useless artificial make up.
Yes we see ..the question how we changed the narrative.....there are so many narrative that must be changed
Most East Africans do not "over-do" themselves with makeup, wigs and all. I think most East African women prefer looking as natural as possible
A lawyer and an accountant doing shoes. Simply Magic. No wig, no make up, just simple. I must have a pair today. Love you!
Hapo kwa no wig and no make, utakujiwa :-)
East African women tend to prefer the natural look over the over done look
She's was like that since childhood.all their family are bright and very nice.
@@hanillegiolo3386 Lies
@@gashafashi08 ..okay. I've lived in both sides. Not saying it's 100%, but you'll see more "done up" women in West Africa (ie. Wigs, eyelashes, thick lipstick, jewellery...etc - the whole works) than in East Africa. That's not to say there aren't any subdued women in the West, nor are there overdone women in the East but generally it's more pronounced in the West.
I want one of these shoes !!!🔥🔥🔥☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾
They're available online via their website!
Bandeur de Japon tu Fais quoi ici ? 😩
Me too.Very inspiring story.
The link is there!
@@Rabidanti Et toi, qu'est-ce qui t'a amené ici à Kenya?
This woman have the mind of a global economist. Her reasoning for uniting Africa is on point! Thank you for asking her that question WODE MAYA👍🏾
Yes! She is brilliantly Afrikan.
This, manufacturing, is how you build an economy, then a country and lastly a continent. I love to see it.
There is always that kind of video that after watching it you feel ashamed to leave without saying something, and this is one of those. I mean each and every time you see people like this genius lady doing great things, your confidence gets built up..
There is nothing difficult under the sun. Everything is possible in this life indeed. Africa 🌍 to the world
I feel so proud and inspired by this young African lady, she speak and does the dream all African should aspired to, bless is you my Sister.
Absolutely! Always bet on yourself 👌.
Navalayo Osembo is a trail blazer! She's doing the most taking 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 to the world! I'm very proud of her!
These shoes look really nice beautiful craftsmanship. Keep it up Kenya, just another story I wouldn't of had any clue about if it wasn't for the The African Ambassador.
Thanks, Glenn. Appreciated 👍.
@@EndaSportswear, You're welcome.
She said "If you create the opportunities, you find the people with the skills" . This goes deeper especially in African countries where opportunities are scarce but the Youth population and potential working class is steadily increasing. We need to create opportunities which would in turn motivate people to learn skills for available opportunities. An environment that stimulates productivity is bound to grow exponentially. Unfortunately there are multiple historical constraints impeding this structure in the African clime and we need to dismantle these constraints one at a time. Much love to this beautiful intelligent Kenyan entrepreneur❤
Please let her reach out to African countries sport ministries. This is a good news. Something good and great are also here in Africa. I'm so proud to be an African
Only if they will listen!
@@WODEMAYA Wode Maya, let her try first and you can help as a global African Ambassador. This is awesome. Thank you.
We hope they will listen. One conversation at a time.
I looked at the price and the shoes sell at $100-120 thats way too expensive for shoes being manufactured locally let's be honest .
We should support her,us the people……forget the ministries,no more waiting on govt.do for self
This woman is full of wisdom you can see how she explains that shoe design and just everything. How she handles things also imagine if it was me given opportunity to work in the UN i would have grabbed it but instead she left it to purse her dream. This so inspiring, Maya may God bless you foe being a blessing to us
Thank you for the sweet compliments 🤗
Woow.... Africans women are winning.. Let go ladies👌,Girls power 💪, I think she is first African manuifactory sports runners.
When I see a black person innovative and creating things.. That makes me too happy. Because thats where we blacks lacking, which prevent us to take our position of respect we deserve in this world.
This video is exactly what I signed up for in this channel! Africa must focus on Manufacturing, that's where the Gold lies. We have all the raw materials.
Makes sense😁. Kenya has been dominating middle and long distance running for a generation.
Agree. It was about time the best running kicks came from from the best that ever do it👌.
@@EndaSportswear 💯👍🏾
@@EndaSportswear.... And know we're in short races... Omanyala oyeeeeeee!
Yah!!
Awesome video my bro! I just bought my navy blue Enda's in the states with free delivery! If I can pay $125 U.S for Nike and other brands, I'm definitely going to support my African made brands with the same pleasure!
I wish I could like👍👍 this video a million times. This is the future exercise
same here
Africa needs ultimate respect, not only because she is the cradle of humanity, but also the source of everything. Indeed, the world cannot function without Africa and that’s a fact and the so-called first world countries know it.
Fact! Im very glad you said, "so called."
Saw kenyan athlete wearing though in bright colours it did not knock sense that it was home made until today. Thank you my Ghana man I am Maya!
Kenyan athletes wear Enda. It is just that in some races they'll have to wear sponsor brands. We Kenyans support Enda. It is just some clueless Africans who are hearing about it for the first time.
Imagine how it feels to wear made in Africa! I can't wait to buy this shoes.
Great shoes, Enda means go in Shona . Much recognition from Zimbabwe.
KiSwahili and Shona are closely related languages 🙌🏿 Thanks for showing support all the way from Zim.
I am a African Americans. I am proud of you and what you are doing. I pray one day when I go into the store I can buy PRODUCTS that says " MADE IN AFRICA or PRODUCT OF AFRICA". Keep up the good work. It Bless my heart.
I am buying Enda and winning a gold medal for the Democratic Republic of Congo.
@zonveni.... Enda brother and take all golds and take it back home
We’ll be supporting brother
Go hard my brother Africa to the world
Yes !! Go for gold !!
I'm only hear to comment how she not only talk about Kenya but Africa as a whole. This is how African should promote each other, by loving each other and know that together our problems are solved, because we are all suffering from one oppression, one imperialism so together we can achieve more, together we can dictate world to respect us. Much love from Gambia 🇬🇲 and by the way well done ❤️
Wonderful, sport ministries in various countries should link up with this company. Africa for Africans
I think I have already come across enda shoe's here in Ghana, She's doing well. Thanks for letting us see the brains behind that brand, it's amazing 👏
Please where did u buy them in Ghana ? I’m also I. Ghana. Thank you
Oh wow
This is a major move from her, and Kenya. Kenyan athletes, who are some of the best in the world should endorse this young lady.I am a proud African right now.
This Lady is a Fire brand, I first saw her in a kenyan version of the lions den show... She literally outsmarted the investment hosts and proudly walked out declining their patronizing offers... Now look where she is at.... Respekt Empress..... You lead we follow
Everything is possible here in Africa,if only we can support our own we will take over the world 🇨🇮🇨🇮
Fact
Fact 100%
💯
I will need an 8 1/2 U.S. size…if I like them then my wife will also want a pair. I have many people in my circle that will also order Wode. Great story and congratulations to the young entrepreneur. 💯🇰🇪
Maya, this lady is terrific. So..so..proud of her entrepreneurship.
Every day I’m inspired by people like this that there is hope. I’m inspired to do more. Im inspired that the narrative change for Africa. ✊👏
Same 😢
Sister YOU are Queen of Africa and the guy Designer King of Africa thank you for making Africa to the world 👍👍👍👍
As a person that knew her when I was growing up, I can say people come from far. Being a military kid shapes you kabisa! Proudly Kenyan 🇰🇪🇰🇪
True the world 🌎 can’t survive without Africa
This lady is telling the world that, African have talent and very industrious people. God willing, Maya she will go far. Remember this is how Puma and Adidas started in Germany 🇩🇪 .
Although the two brothers fell apart later in life to form separate companies in the sports world. But this lady will get highest level in the world.
From Bayelsa State Nigeria 🇳🇬.
The good thing about this is she's a Kenyan the country that's famous for producing good athletes 👏well done sister and you Wode Maya you deserve all the respect for changing the narrative
That's a good point.I hope one day the Kenyan athletes will wear her shoes instead of Niki and other foreign brands.
The passion with Wode Maya is unmatched. Commendable.
My sister you an achieve and your product will go beyond limit I want you to let the world know if we can get your product in the USA so we as dispora can buy your product.
@@Flourish_today They do!! They wear Nike if they are a sponsor but that does not mean they do not wear Enda.
EXACTLY!!!
This woman has a very powerful mind.The way she responded to all the questions you asked.Just powerful.Go girl 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is truly amazing. Slowly and surely Africa is coming up . This continent will shock the world and regain his greatness . Kudos to this young female entrepreneur and we will never thank Wode Maya enough for extraordinaries job he is doing for our continent .
Thank you ❤️. Yes, Wode Maya is doing an excellent job ✅.
True, this gives me faith that the future for our descendants will be brighter and better.
In America the majority race will simply deny the existence of this. BUT WHO CARES, right? Africa at its BEST!!!
She is so inspirational with her products Made in Kenya with careful love and passion ,i need a pair now 🥇🥇🙌🙌🌹🌹🎈🎈
God bless Africa, one day, one fine fine day; we will have a United Africa.
It's good to see that a Kenyan and African can make shoes locally.
Africa wake up. We need more factories not churches.
I wonder if the Enda shoe brand is available in stores across Nairobi
So much love from Uganda. You really are inspirational. Thank for making us realise Africa is the best. Thank you for taking us to places. You and Trudy are the beeessst.
Straight from chams media Kenya🇰🇪 Africa is beautiful
Welcome
This is awesome. Kenya has the best runners in the world. It is only fitting to see such a success story emanating from here. I hope these shoes are worn widely by these great athletes from Kenya and Africa as a whole. We are proud of you.
*correction Ethiopia has the best runners in the world!
@@poxcop quite debatable but who has more medals? 😝
@@poxcop not true .One Ethiopian wins and ten Kenyans have won .So Kenya has the best runners.Stop arguing here !!
What she is saying is exactly what needs to happen! One Africa....smart lady! Enterprising too...
This is so impressed and amazing and she's really a hard working lady
She is and her simplicity is 💯
Thank you ❤️!
I remember seeing her on Lion's Den, Kenya's version of SharkTank. I'm glad she pushed on by herself after walking away from the investors.Kudos.
She's so young and a great inspiration to me personally. She's done so well
Amazing work Sister , well done . I am so proud to see a product made in Africa and A Black Woman breaking the odds, inspire so many young women to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Congratulation !
So happy and proud of this sister. A united Africa 🌍
Such an inspiring story. Even here in Zambia we identify with that brand. Enda means walk in our local languages here.
If Wode Maya support I support!
💯 definitely
The character description in one shoe is amazing. Twende Kenya.
Kenya 🇰🇪 to the world 🌎
Absolutely 💯!
If only we'd listened to Thomas Sankara, we'd be so far but it's never too late. We shouldn't let a United Europe stop us from uniting. Harambee- let's work together.
So thoughtful that the shoes tell our story,indeed Kenya to the world
That was powerful.
Beautifully and most importantly wise lady; role model, positive, eloquent, intelligent, polite, humble....pretty much everything
I am from Ghana and I want to know how I can go to Kenya to learn this . I am very interested 😎
Thumbs up to this Lovely Lady and her ambitions. God Bless Her and Africa.
I love this video. Very powerful. African lady. You really make me feell proud as a jamaican woman. Big up. Ride on lady
Awesome work. Good job Wode Maya for highlighting these young entrepreneurs. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Our kenyan athlete's should start wearing those shoes and promoting the brand.
Unless she gets funding and it becomes a huge company this won't happen
nike , adidas will simply outbid her for the athletes
@@gidd then she will have to play the patriotism card and she taps in to the local mkt, with this
@@gidd Kenyan athletes need to develop the spirit of promoting their own. That is how this show company will expand.
O yes
@@gidd an athlete can simply make the decision to forfeit big sponsorsn rock her shoes.since we know that might not happen then we the people should support her. I bought a pair,right before typing this
So nice to see manufacturing going on in Africa. It is not necessary to import everything. SHE IS A STRONG, SMART BLACK WOMAN THAT IS BEING A ROLE MODEL FOR OTHERS IN AFRICA. THANK YOU.
THIS QUEEN IS AWSOME MY BROTHER !! THANKS FOR INTRODUCING HER TO US !!! THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! YOU ARE RAISING OUR AWARENESS OF WHO AND WHAT WE ARE !!! THANKS !!
I appreciate that
Another day to be proudly African. beautiful stories from Africa
Wow, love that she gives credit to her employees. The designers and all the other employees
@Invisible But Strong ONLY a co-owner? What do you own though? Isn't better than the muzungu owning 100%. You are of those who hates anything good from an African.
@Invisible But Strong Baby steps my friend, baby steps. Today's co-owners are tomorrow's sole owner. We're getting there.
This puts a Smile on my face..these are the kind of Friends I need in mu circles. Very hardworking, innovative humble, beautiful and passionate at what they do. Much Love from this Ugandan 🇺🇬 Sister 💗
I am definitely going to buy, who else is buying people the link is there on the discription on making orders and shipments all over the world Viva Enda Viva
AWESOME !
LOVING YOU TOTALLY YOUNG LADY! 💚💚💚
Aiya MAYAAA!!! You don’t cease to surprise us with amazing & inspirational but educative videos.
May you hit 1M soon & make more impact! God bless✊🏾🖤
We will get there soon broo!
This young Entrepreneur is doing great work in Kenya together we can change Africa
As a marathon runner, I have a different outlook on what she said. Instead of focusing on the elite athletes like the big shoe companies do, rather market to us recreational runners. There are many of us casual runners who would love to support a brand like this.
In case the lady reads this, please specify on your website what each shoe is for: eg, casual/gym, trail running, 5k to 10k, half marathon, or marathon+. Basic info to help us choose what to buy.
I like your idea
Very good suggestions🙏
I think she said that right in the beginning of the interview. She's focusing on the up coming athlete since the elite are already locked up in contracts with big companies.
@@JohnJuniorTheTraveller54 exactly. She said that
These shoes are in our Kenyan stores. They are not just for elite athletes. Only the clueless have no idea.
This woman is AMAZING, may the Most High continue to bless her richly!
Shona and Swahili are similar, in Zimbabwe enda also means go, Africa let's unite
Both are bantu languages that's why
And here in Namibia 🇳🇦 in Oshiwambo, one of the local langagues "enda" means walk.
Bantu origins
In Shona (Zimbabwe🇿🇼) enda also means Go
Next I come to Nairobi, am getting myself a pair or two. This is very impressive Enda sneakers trainers. Well done lady owner for creating so many jobs opportunities in Kenya. I hope you have an outlet shop in Nairobi...I will check from your website...Wonderful work Ms Osembo...for creating Enda shoes..💜🇬🇧
I just love the care placed in assembling all parts this is fantastic
Much Love from Kenya Wode Maya. Kenya loves you and you are welcome anytime
this is very impressive! she deserves all the attention! what!🙌
This is powerful. Africa is blessed.Thanks sis and my senior bro Maya.
I was just saying to my mom that I can't find any black manufactured sneaks, and have been literally holding out for the right pair and here's Wode Maya presenting Enda Kenyan made kicks! Thank you sir! Shoes these days are expensive as heck, but if it's black manufactured I'm all in. Hat's too PLEASE for those wild hair days!
Sad you African Americans despite living in a capitalist country cannot even achieve this
@@gibson2675 stop trolling
@@gibson2675 I agree 100%. People aren't creative, and copy, paste what's most familiar to them. I'd love to see more of this so that we have some options. However, the situation here is not as simple as you would expect it would be.
@Invisible But Strong Yeah, I kinda figured that out when she mentioned through crowd funding she was able to achieve this. The materials are apparently hard to source within the continent which is the problem. Maybe this is something to be focused on which of course will cost quite a bit. But if you know of any black owned athletic shoes, or even just a decent pair of shoes please share! We all need to know!
@@gibson2675 TROLL, you should know black basketball players in America have manufacture sneakers, so DON'T come to the channel with negativity.
This is huge. Congratulations Madam and thanks for making us proud 🙏
This is absolutely amazing. I am inspired by this young articulate and courougeous lady who has stepped into a territory that has been a reserve for big western brands and made a name and brand for herself. I am proud to be Kenyan, proud to be African.
I love this sisters energy her mindset is on point powerful
