About

Bucketfeet`s story began with the serendipitous meeting of two strangers traveling through Argentina.Co-founders Raaja Nemani and Aaron Firestein met by chance while volunteering in Argentina. Aaron was an artist from Berkeley, CA living in Buenos Aires and Raaja was taking a year to backpack around the world. Before Raaja left Argentina, Aaron gave him a pair of hand-designed shoes inspired by the city blocks of Buenos Aires. Throughout the remainder of Raaja`s journey, this simple pair of shoes sparked hundreds of conversations across six continents with people of all cultures and backgrounds.
