We Share Warmth
Manitobah Mukluks is dedicated to sharing success and our platform with Indigenous artists and creators. We designed this limited edition Corrine Hunt Suede Tamarack in collaboration with Corrine Hunt...there are only 500 pairs available!
About the Artist:
Corrine grew up on the reservation in Alert Bay, BC inspired by the beauty of the Big House and the celebratory and unifying roles of the potlatch. Strongly connected to family, Corrine was mentored by her uncle Henry, an artist who helped her to see the stories hidden behind the silver and gold she engraved.
As she developed her talents, Corrine expanded into furniture design and mixed media and began exploring a modern interpretation of traditional symbols. Corrine has designed coins for the Canadian Mint, uniforms for the Canadian Olympic Snowboard team, and co-designed the medals for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.
Her work is now part of the permanent collection of the Museum of History and she is a recipient of the National Aboriginal Achievement Award and BC Arts in Excellence Award. Today, Corrine continues creating hand carved jewellery, furniture and multi-media pieces and takes pride in giving back to her community in Tsakis, working with the village children teaching art and ideas
About the Art:
In my art, I show how both First Nations people and the artistic traditions have evolved, sharing images of animals such as orca whales, wolves, eagles, ravens and hummingbirds – animals often found on the Northwest Coast.
I am a member of the Raven Gwa’wina clan.
Gwa’wina - the raven, fancy feet. You and the raven walk in each other’s footsteps, finding joy. This is my vision for your mukluks
Care instructions: Our artist collaborations are printed on painted, delicate, leather. They are not waterproof and should not be worn in muddy slush. Please spray them carefully with high-quality, new, silicon-based spray.

My Favourite Mukluks EVER
These are absolutely beautiful, fit perfectly and true to size, are warm and grip the ice and snow, and I never wanted to take them off! LOVE the Raven design.

Bought these as a gift for my daughter. She loves them. They are an addition to her collection of your mukluks. I was not disappointed by the looks, quality and definitely not by the design. They were everything I expected.
CanadaFantastic art, but poor comfort and quality compared to my other Mukluks
The boots are not as comfortable as my other Mukluks. It’s the structure around the toe, that doesn’t feel comfortable. The quality feels less as impressive verses my other Mukluks. I absolutely love the art and that is the reason I bought them.
CanadaAwesome
Life these boots . Bought a second pair in a different colour. Beautiful and warm.
CanadaGrateful
I ordered these unbelievably Beautiful Boots because of the Story Miss Hunt wrote about them... I can’t explain it, but I felt an immediate connection with her... I’ve never experienced anything like this before! I opened the box and just hugged them! It was like I could feel her hands creating them... I believe that through her work, her Spirit lives! Thank You So Much, I feel honoured to have them..
