from the BEARPAW website

“Tom Romeo founded the BEARPAW brand in 2001 with the intention of redefining casual footwear by utilizing sheepskin, nature’s own technical fabric, to create comfortable and stylish shoes. Sheepskin naturally regulates body temperature so feet stay cooler and drier in the heat and warmer in the cold. In one of the most competitive footwear market segments, BEARPAW has carved out a niche area by providing customers with comfort and sensibility to set itself apart. From slippers to boots to casual footwear, only the finest materials are used to produce BEARPAW shoes. Built to deliver quality and style, every pair of BEARPAW shoes focuses on comfort and fit, using the highest standards of craftsmanship.”

My Thoughts

Being a Florida girl I long for the cold boot weather to make it down to me and while it never does I finally have a reason to don these beautiful boots. I am super excited about my trip up North that we will be taking soon and I will have the best pair of boots on my feet! The Stowe boot is ultra soft on the inside and tough on the outside to keep the dirt, snow and chill out. I am in love with BEARPAW and all their shoes and the Stowe boots are at the top of my list. Speaking of lists, these boots would make a great Christmas present for anyone on your list. BEARPAW is definitely a trusted brand of mine and one I will continue to buy from when we move up north (wishful hoping but you never know).

The wonderful people at BEARPAW have also donated a pair of BEARPAW shoes for one very lucky Dirty Shirt reader to win. That’s right you get to choose from any pair of BEARPAW shoes. How fun is that?!? Please see rules below and enter to win today!

Being in Florida I miss out on all the wonderful children’s clothing and shoes that they only have up North. But I totally could not pass the new Ministar boots up when asked to review them! Hey they wear winter boots all the time in California so I am starting my daughter on the kick of wearing them in Florida! Seriously, just look how adorable these are…

These are the cutest and adorable boots for a toddler I have ever seen! They are completely lined with fur too so they are soft and I imagine cozy on the inside.

The Ministar boots come in 3 colors. Sizing is as follows: Small 0-6 months, Medium 6-12 months, Large 12-18 months, XL 18-24 months.  (**Please note, the Beige do not come in size XL**)  You may want to order 1 size larger due to the soft fur lining throughout the boot.

Once my daughter got them and tried them on she wouldn’t take them off. She wanted to wear them in bed, at the playground and even in the pool (don’t worry that didn’t happen) she liked them that much. I could only wish they made them in my size!

Ministar is distributed by RT Nash, Inc. who also distributes Bobux USA & Canada and Silly Billyz USA & Canada. Bobux International ONLY provides the designs for the Ministar shoes. The Ministar brand is made in China.

I have great news! I have been given the opportunity to host a giveaway of a pair of these adorable boots to one lucky Dirty Shirt reader. See the rules below to enter today!
