EMU Australia was founded in 1994 in Greelong, Victoria, just minutes away from the world renowned Bells Beach; where the "original ugly sheepskin boot" was invented. The Australian sheepskin boot, otherwise known as the Ugg boot, was developed in the 1970's as a way to combat cold feet after winter surfing. Greelong is Australia's prime wool, cattle and grain region and is still the home for the Australian company's head office.
EMU boots and slippers are made with 100% Australian Sheepskin - unlike competitors that will mix breeds from other countries. The Emu is also Australia's national bird and is proudly displayed with the kangaroo on the Australian National Coat of Arms.
EMU Australia has been rated as a top brand for both comfort and style. The invention of the 'ugly boot' has certainly allowed us Winnipeggers to expand our winter footwear beyond the typical -30 C boot.
We received five fantastic styles that will take you from fall to our freezing winters! EMU sheepskin acts as an insulator, allowing your feet to breath naturally. The sheepskin keeps away 70% moisture inside the boot and forms to your foot as you continue to wear them.
