Rediscover comfort and heritage with our new Tipi Canvas slipper, an updated version of our best-selling Tipi. Crafted from durable canvas and suede with rabbit fur, these indoor slippers feature a captivating print by Janae Grass. Paying homage to Indigenous craftsmanship and artistry, Janae's all-over print, coupled with timeless beadwork, adds a touch of elegance to every step. This fan-favorite has been reimagined to embody the essence of Woodland tradition, making it a must-have for cozy evenings at home.About the Art"To me, the designs in this collection are a testament to the story of the Sac & Fox people. The style of these designs have withstood the removal from the Great Lakes area to Oklahoma, assimilation, and hardships we face today. Being one of a few Woodland tribes in Oklahoma, our connection to our original homelands is reflected in our beadwork, ribbonwork, and ways of life. My goal as a visual artist is to create works that contribute to our material culture and embody our stories. The designs in this collection are mainly loom beadwork designs implemented in a new, contemporary way that honors the design heritage of the Woodland aesthetic." - Janae Grass

As a young Métis entrepreneur, Sean McCormick began Manitobah Mukluks with the vision of creating a successful company while benefiting his community. Today we continue that vision on a larger scale, as a global brand making a positive impact in Indigenous communities across North America.Sean McCormick spent much of his childhood in northern Manitoba and started selling leather and fur while still in high school. In 1990, he established a trading post where Indigenous artisans traded handmade mukluks and moccasins for tanned leather, skins and furs. During this time, Sean saw an even greater opportunity to connect members of his community to the growing demand for authentic Indigenous footwear. In 1996, after completing the Manitoba Aboriginal Youth Entrepreneurship Training Program, Sean created the business plan and framework that would become Manitobah. In 2008, Manitobah began global operations and today it is one of Canada’s fastest-growing companies, with employees and customers worldwide. Despite the rapid success and growth of the brand, Manitobah remains connected to its roots and continues to provide authentic, Indigenous-designed products that return value to Indigenous communities. Manitobah became a certified B Corporation in 2023, a designation that demonstrates a business meets high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.
