Copy of About Wild Wool Australia
In 2017, after learning the trade of small business from his parents and grandparents before him, and spending most of his life honing his skills as a leather craftsman, Todd, together with his wife Hannah, commenced work to create a locally managed manufacturing workshop that would truly go back to basics – delivering premium quality, handcrafted sheepskin and leather footwear and apparel that filled a hole in the luxury market, but also delivering collections that had a conscious composition in the way they were designed, sourced, crafted and created. And so, Wild Wool Australia was built from the ground up, to operate seam by seam, with a transparent conscience in the footwear industry.
At Wild Wool Australia, there are no conveyor belts or mass production techniques. Instead, you’ll find ethically sourced, one-of-a-kind leathers, the fluffiest of Australian Merino sheepskin, and sheepskin boots being artfully crafted by our talented makers, most of whom have mastered their craft over decades of practice and precision.
We give conscious consideration to every aspect of our operations, from the way our products are designed, to the way they are manufactured, packaged and sent, allowing us to handcraft thoughtful pieces that are not only premium in terms of their quality, but have a light footprint on our earth in every possible way.
Unlike other big companies, who hold out that their corporate responsibility ends with ensuring the workers in their factories are paid “the legal wage” according to the laws of the country their products are manufactured in, Wild Wool Australia takes pride in putting its best foot forward when it comes to corporate social responsibility in every sense of that obligation.
At Wild Wool Australia, you can confidently buy less, and buy better, knowing we’re doing everything we can to take care of the rest.
