Bearpaw Mens 405 Lug Sole 8-inch Shearling Boots

If you like shearling sheepskin boots at a great price, this is your way to go. This style of boots has traditionally been a womens boot, but more and more men are switching to the lasting comfort of shearling sheepskin boots for winter casual and outdoor wear. If you want to keep your paws warm and in style this winter season without breaking the bank, this is the best way to go.
Customer Review: Good value for the price, runs a bit small
I just received my Bearpaw boots today. I'm a woman, and usually wear a woman's size 10, mens 8. I noticed several reviews mentioned that they seemed to run a size small. So I went up a size, good thing, too! They just fit, no extra room for socks, no wiggle room at all. However they are extremely comfortable, and the lug sole is nice. I have a pair of Ugg Ultimate Cuff boots, and I have to say these come really close to the same level of quality. The interior padding is replaceable, and the shearling and suede are wonderful. I have to say that I feel I got an exceptional value for the money I spent. Hopefully these will wear as well as my Uggs.
Customer Review: Runs small but seem to be good value
I just got these and after inspection I really like the lug sole. It will be great on ice and snow, the lining is soft, the leather thick and from the smell they come pre-scotch guarded, always a good thing. My complaint is, I'm a woman and wear an 11. After debating I ordered a mens size 10. They just fit. These DEFINITELY RUN SMALL. If you are a regular 10 I'd say size up. My toes are just to the front of these, but they're comfortable. If I were 1/4 in longer in the foot I'd have to send them back.

"Sustainable Fashion and Textile: Design Journeys" is the name of a new book about eco-fashion, written by a respected pioneer Kate Fletcher. While most of us got off to a good start with other readings, Fletcher's book is taking us to a new level of understanding.

The concise chapters, valuable data, elaborate explanations, along with resources, gave us more tools for our journey. As designers, we are at the end of the organic chain. From farming, fiber, fabric, dyeing, manufacturing, shipping, the product is passed through a lot of hands, making it hard to claim a product true organic. We can only confirm the sustainability practices list of our vendors, and hope for improvement each time.

We have been following Kate's own endeavors, and one of them is the 5 ways. The 5 ways of reducing negative impact towards the environment through energy consumption, reusing what we have and producing locally, are listed on her site, and have the power to energize designers, to make all groups think about ways to extend the life of a garment and take the journey of reuse and update. But while all is fascinating and laudatory, my quandary is why most of the effort is directed towards the T-shirt, as the ultimate emblematical fashion statement.

I truly believe that we should all take a step further in using this powerful vehicle of change -fashion- and address all the fashion garments, because our individuality, our daily fashion statements are expressed through more than just the basic T-shirt.
