Compare a genuine Dominion Sheepskin boot to a cheaper copy.

You will notice it just seems to look and fit better! Why?……………Quite often cheaper versions are not heel molded.

Heel molding is done on a specialized machine that heat sets the reinforcement stiffener that is placed between the sheepskin and heel suede. After heat setting, it is cooled on a heel shaped mould that locks in the proper 3 dimension heel shape.  It’s important also that the heel reinforcement material extends down into the side stitched sole as in our styles Lara,  Annelise, Monarch, Apollo, Artemis, Rosie, Jean and Edmund – or is caught under the binding as in our style Godiva. Failure to do this in the manufacturing process can result in the heel suede wearing and ripping away from the sole. All Dominion sheepskin Boots are heel molded.

As well as looking more please to the eye, a well form heel on a Sheepskin Boot helps prevent ‘heel slip’ – by hugging your heel in place.

When you buy your sheepskin boots, always ensure they fit very snug. After a few days wearing, the 100% wool fleece moulds to the natural shape of your foot which allows a roomier fit.

With a longstanding history in sheepskin and leather apparel the people behind Dominion have been responsible for producing some of the finest clothing and footwear from New Zealand.  Now we’ve taken the next step.

Dominion is a natural progression, a brand that has been purpose-built to deliver encompassing, enduring luxury. We work to provide this sense of security by carefully melding fashion and function. The finest quality materials are sourced, the very best in genuine twin-faced sheepskin for instance. This wool lets air circulate and is supremely helpful in providing natural moisture control, transferring any dampness to the outside, where it harmlessly evaporates.

Our materials are delivered from specific providers, each stringently vetted across a range of criteria. While production techniques have changed our overriding belief remains consistent with history – a sophisticated, unique material that requires appropriate care and consideration in design.

To ensure a treasured piece can last a lifetime we ensure rigorous development and testing. Consequently, our boots are made to hold their shape as easily as they hold the warmth. The strong heel has carefully fitted reinforcement and the luxurious insole makes stepping inside an incredible experience, each and every time.

Our clothing range shuns flashy. The durable, hardwearing material is finished to a supreme point. There are no pressure points and no kinks. Just supreme comfort.
There’s a reason why particular styles last. No, it’s not just warm nostalgia. It’s the attention to detail and care of creation that only true style can deliver.

We believe that what you choose to buy today should be what you choose to wear in years to come.
