Double-stitched seams and an anatomically correct insole means this boot will last longer and more comfortably than any other model on the market.

History
EMU Australia's connection to genuine sheepskin footwear runs deep. Located in Geelong, the heart of Australia's prime wool growing district, EMU is headquartered in the very place sheepskin boots were invented. The company operates out of the site of one of Australia's largest and most respected tanneries. Many employees of this tannery work for EMU today, bringing with them a heritage of knowledge and craftsmanship.
All of EMU Australia's products are designed on Victoria's Surf Coast, inspired by the surrounding natural environment. It was here that local surfers in the 1970s first invented the "original ugly sheepskin boot." Sheepskin's natural insulating properties were perfect for warming up cold feet after a long day of surfing.
As a privately owned Australian company, EMU controls its operations from concept to the shelf. The sheepskin used in their footwear comes from herds of sheep EMU raises themselves. This structure cuts out the middleman and puts EMU in a position to build high quality products that are friendly to both the environment and your wallet.
EMU Australia celebrates nearly two decades of success. As its fashion profile continues to rise, EMU introduces the world to genuine Australian style. With expansive operations in China and distributors in Japan, South Africa, UK and Europe, EMU is fast becoming the sheepskin brand of choice around the globe.
