Street sellers in Barcelona have launched their own line of trainers.
Street sellers in Spain are often immigrants from African countries that sell fake designer clothes, sunglasses and shoes.
The brand is called Top Manta, the name of which comes from the blanket (manta) that the sellers lay their products on. Their aim is to produce ethnical and sustainable trainers which also help support the street sellers.
Top Manta have just launched the Ande Dem trainers, which means "walking together" in Wolof, the language spoken by most sellers, who are mainly from Senegal.
