Koolaburra's
core product is the sheepskin boot. A simple,
understated piece of sheepskin footwear which
owes it's popularity to it's comfort, the sheepskin
boot has risen from humble beginnings in Australian
culture to become a worldwide phenomenon. With
roots going back to the days when the first European
settlers brought sheep with them to the shores
of Botany Bay, the sheepskin boot grew from a
cottage industry to a more commercially viable
product in the 60's when it became embraced by
surfers as a standard piece of after surfin
footwear.
Slowly but surely, as American surfers brought
back sheepskin boots as a practical souvenir from
trips to Down Under, this enabled companies marketing
the sheepskin boot to gain a foothold with these
core conoclasts who truly helped launch this amazing
product.
Each piece of Koolaburra footwear
is handcrafted from only the finest Australian
Merino sheepskin using real Australian know-how
and ingenuity. Koolaburra footwear is found in
fine stores throughout Australia, Tasmania, the
United States, Europe and Asia. When you purchase
Koolaburra footwear, you are taking home a piece
of Australian culture.
