Update


Sorry for the delay in posting anything new since mid September, but the last month and a half of the project was perhaps the most hectic of the lot. Further traveling abroad has also made any updates near impossible to do, and in fact as of last week all of us who participated in the project are now back on American soil once more. This does not mean the blog will end however; since the last post there have been quite a bit of updates, insights, trials and tribulations. Look to the coming days for posts ranging from how the middle class lives in South Africa, to the debacle (and eventual resolution) that is South African import law and how it almost deep 6'd our clothing ambitions.

From neighborhoods where every house has barbed wire and most people are armed, to myself wandering the port of Durban at dawn, still hazy from a late night, flanked by shipping containers stacked 4 stories high and looking for the warehouse to clear the clothing from customs... Things get a bit more interesting.
