The image depicts an outdoor repair scene on a light-colored ground surface in Mombasa, Kenya. In the foreground, an adult dark-skinned male, wearing a purple long-sleeved shirt and dark trousers, is barefoot and crouched or seated on a low wooden chair with a patterned cushion. He is actively engaged in repairing a multi-colored sandal, holding a small hammer-like tool with a wooden handle in his right hand. Surrounding the main subject on the ground are various pairs of footwear: a pair of black slip-on sandals with a star design, a pair of worn grey lace-up shoes, a pair of dark grey sneakers, a pair of red-brown leather lace-up shoes, and a pair of yellow high-heeled sandals with clear heels. A small, heavy metal shoemaker's last rests on the ground near the yellow sandals. To the right of the main subject, an open, rough wooden crate contains additional footwear. In the background, on the far left, a portion of a red motorcycle is visible, parked on a stand. To the right, a second adult figure, partially obscured, is seated and wears a black and white checkered top with black trousers. Blue and green patterned fabrics are draped over a surface in front of this figure, suggesting a nearby textile or tailoring activity, possibly involving a sewing machine that is partially visible. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight.
