Manitobah: Woodland Waterproof Tall Boot Limited Edition (Birch, US 8) - NWT

Great for slushy (and snowy) conditions, these boots are the perfect companion to take with you to the mountains this winter. Not only are these boots stylish and unique, but with a temperature rating of up to -25°C, they will keep your tootsies warm. The vibrant pattern by Janae Grass, a talented Sac & Fox artist who descends from the Mvskoke and Absentee Shawnee Nations, beautifully embodies traditional Woodland aesthetics. Paying homage to Indigenous craftsmanship and artistry, the designs in her Woodlands collection are a testament to the story of the Sac & Fox people and their removal from the Great Lakes area to Oklahoma, and subsequent assimilation and hardship. Against a mountain backdrop and plenty of snow, aside from being perfect for Instagram photo opportunities, these boots are just as functional as they are fashionable thanks to their lightweight nylon puffer design, supportive sole and all-day comfort, durability and traction. Manitobah Muklaks originated in Winnipeg, Manitoba, twenty-something years ago by Metis entrepreneur, Sean McCormick. They provide authentic, Indigenous-designed footwear and accessories that truly reflect Indigenous culture. As their company vision is to build a vibrant global brand that makes a positive impact in Indigenous communities, you can feel great about wearing these boots! These gorgeous boots (which Manitobah no longer have in stock) were a gift from hubby, but, sadly, they’re too small and we missed the return window.
