Stylight offers them in an array of gorgeous colors and hot styles for every season. The fact that they are ridiculously comfortable is just icing on the cake.

Three Ways Emu Shoes Live Up To Their Name

The Emu (pronounced “eem-you”) is Australia’s national bird, viewable on the country’s coat of arms as well as in numerous wooded areas all around the country. It’s also the name of a renowned Australian shoe company.

See why this moniker is such a perfect fit for these comfy kicks.

Soft

All it takes is one look at these tall, flightless birds to guess correctly that their long, skinny feathers are as soft as can be. And though Emu boots aren’t made of emu feathers, they are made of genuine sheepskin, one of the plushest leather options available. They’re so soft that you might even want to skip the socks sometimes—don’t worry, we won’t tell if you do.

Tough

You might not think of birds as the toughest animals around, but when it comes to emus, you should think again. These creatures successfully survived the attacks of a military force sent to kill them in what’s known as the Emu War of 1932, making them pretty much the baddest birds around (don’t believe us? Look it up). Just like their feathered counterparts, Emu shoes are surprisingly resilient, outlasting the typical lifespan for boots of their kind. Wear them with a leather jacket for a look that’s all-around tough.

Thoroughly Australian

Native to Australia, emus aren’t an unusual sight down under, joining kangaroos, koalas and wombats on the list of uniquely Australian animals. Similarly, Emu shoes are Australian through and through—using designs and materials from Down Under. Worn with a bushwear-inspired getup, you’ll look right at home on the Outback.

Don’t be a birdbrain—do yourself a favor and pick up some Emu shoes right now.
