September 1st was the 3rd annual Orange Shirt Day. A day dedicated to raise awareness for students who survived and didn’t survive residential schools in Canada.
It also happens to be fall. Which means winter is coming (not a game of thrones reference, it’s actually coming!)
So I thought now was a perfect time to share my favourite winter boots.
I know you must be thinking, how the heck do residential schools connect with winter boots?
Watch this short video (1:56), it’ll start the explanation process!
Manitoba Mukluks are, as you just witnessed; gorgeous, practical and they have social cause connected to them. Definitely my kind of fashion!
Seriously I know it's a bit lame, but boots make me very, very happy.
I roll the top down on mine. This style is called Tall Gatherer Mukluk in Tan retail cost $269.
My new boots are called, Tall Wrap Mukluk in chocolate and retail for $349
The story behind the company is great. I suggest reading all about their vision and policies here. Their online support is amazing. As soon as you log onto the website, a support agent is waiting via live chat to answer any questions. Shipping and returns are FREE. I really think Manitobah Mukluks are the iconic Canadian winter boot. They also have a children's line and my daughter is stoked to try them (I have a feeling she's gonna need an adult size though:). The moccasins are also stunning. I may get my husband a pair for Christmas. Happy shopping! Let me know which one is your fave, or if you have any other questions! MF
