Booting up with Leather
Bindoon Boots are so comfortable you want to wear them everywhere.
Handcrafted in Fremantle Western Australia, from premium grade Australian sheepskin, Bindoon Boots have been specially designed for those who naturally seek the ultimate in durability, quality and style. They are changing the reputation of the ugg boot, and it’s for the better. Their sheepskin and leather covered footwear is so luxuriously comfortable that you’ll want to wear them just about everywhere! But the best thing about them is that you can.
Bindoon Boots was started in an outlet for craft goods made by local craftspeople in Bindoon. It has since expanded and in 1975 moved its retail outlet to the Fremantle Markets.
In 1989 Bindoon Cottage Crafts, the company behind Bindoon Boots, won a design award for leather garments in Western Australia and a further 2 national awards for design in 1989 and 1992.
Bindoon Boots are of a national standard and this is proved by the fact that they are worn in Antarctica and Northern China as well as throughout Australia. Bindoon Boots also custom makes pairs for sports stars!
