Ahhhh new boots! My Uncle very generously gifted the entire family with a pair of Kodiak boots of our choice and I picked the Acadia style from the women’s classics line. They arrived this week and they are so soft and comfortable and fit like a dream! They are made of a waterproof leather with thinsulate insulation and a non-slip rubber sole; these durable boots will be great for trail walking in the winter, and they are a pretty quintessential Canadian boot company which is great. Am I a vegan wearing leather boots? Yes… I realize there is a conflict there but I also believe in reducing waste and if the cheapy boots that I have been wearing are gonna leak and fall apart on me every few months I’m just adding more garbage to the landfill… right? These are a solid investment that with proper care will last for a long time. They were also an incredibly thoughtful gift and I’ve been ok with being a freegan for a while now (my blunstones were a gift too and I adore them). All I can do is my best until I can do better, no one is perfect and I’ve never intended to be a preachy black-belt vegan anyways. I care about having warm, comfortable feet and these boots are amazing!! J got TWO pairs, one classics pair and one pair of massive and truly indestructible work boots, both of which he will be putting to very good use. Thanks Kevin!! ❤
They are so cute!!
Thank you! I love them
They are very chic!
Thanks!
Nice. They do look comfortable. You are right, it is totally worth it to have shoes that are going to last a long time. I get really attached to my boots and have had one pair for 15 years. Once they are broken in it is hard to detatch. 🙂
I love the idea of things that last s long time, way too much about fashion now is like fast food! So much waste. These boots were super comfortable the first time I put them on too, no need to break them in 😊
Don’t you just love new boots? I just got some calf-high ones that make me feel super sexy in my leggings! Nice ones!
[…] isn’t much reason to get dressed up over here either so they are all pretty utilitarian. These Kodiak boots are pretty great, and Hunters are good for the rainy season. What are your favourite […]
