EMU Australia

        EMU Australia (EMU, pronounced ‘eem-you’) started in Geelong; Australia’s prime wool, cattle and grain country. Just minutes from the world renowned surfing centre Bells Beach, Great Ocean Road, Australia. Where a group of Australian surfers invented the ‘original ugly sheepskin boot’. With typical Aussie ingenuity they developed a product to combat cold feet after winter surfing in one of Australia’s most famous and rugged surfing regions.

       EMU has an international focus on lifestyle comfort footwear and we utilise premium Australian wool and sheepskin. Our aim is to exceed the expectations of retailers and consumers with the best quality materials, innovative products and premium customer service support.

       EMU Australia is a luxury brand. We are a unique Australian owned footwear company, that uses premium Australian sheepskin and the best footwear technologies available. Founded in 1994, EMU is known globally for its tradition of offering the most comfortable shoes in the world, with products ranging from traditional sheepskin boots and slippers, to casual comfort slides and urban footwear.

       As a privately owned Australian company, EMU has control of its operations from concept to the shelf. This structure cuts out the middlemen and puts EMU in the position to build highest quality product, coupled with fast and efficient delivery with minimal lead-times.

       EMU Australia has celebrated over a decade of success and the company continues to grow its global business exponentially. Emu has expansive operations in China and appointed distributors in Japan, South Africa, UK and throughout Europe.

EMU Boots
Care and Cleaning of your Emu Boots

Ensure maximum water repellency and protect against stains with Emu Australia Sheepskin Stain & Water Repellent. To clean your Emu footwear, use Emu Cleaner & Conditioner, or The Emu Protector & Cleaner Kit.

We recommend that all Sheepskin products be sprayed with a Sheepskin Stain & Water Repellent before being worn especially if they are Twin Faced sheepskin (100% sheepskin) or a light color. This will prevent dirt and oil from soaking into the sheepskin or suede and will thus trap dirt on the surface, making the cleaning process easier. Stain and water repellent is very helpful and effective. We sell a variety of quality sheepskin protectors.
How to Clean Suede Uppers:
Dampen entire boot evenly to the seams. Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. Apply a minor amount of water and Suede Cleaner to the cloth. Then rub two pieces of the cloth against each other creating lather. Do not pour shampoo directly onto your sheepskin items. Evenly and gently clean the surface with the cloth. Then thoroughly rinse the boot by using a wet, clean cloth. Allow to dry naturally in the house in a well ventilate area. Avoid heat or direct sunlight. We do not recommend putting your sheepskin shoes in the washing machine. We recommend hand washing for best results. Stuff the boot with paper towels to help maintain its original shape while it dries. Once the boot dries, buff the leather lightly with a clean suede brush to restore the nap of the leather fibers.
After cleaning, spray again with Sheepskin Stain & Water Repellent to help protect against any future damage or stains! The spray will put a protective sealer over the upper to keep dirt and grease out. This should enhance the life of the shoe.
How to Clean Twin Faced Sheepskin (100% Sheepskin) Uppers:
Hand wash ONLY, do not machine wash. Dampen the entire boot evenly to the seams with cold water. Apply water and a small amount of Sheepskin Cleaner & Conditioner to a clean, soft cloth or sponge. You can mix sheepskin shampoo with water to create a nice subtle cleaning solution. Do not pour shampoo directly onto your sheepskin items. Be sure to gently clean the entire boot evenly to prevent discoloration in the Sheepskin. Rub gently on the sheepskin upper as some pieces tend to be delicate. Do not use a wire or coarse brush on sheepskin uppers because they can sometimes scar the sheepskin. Rinse using a clean, wet cloth. Be sure to remove all of the Cleaner. You can maintain the shape of your boots by stuffing them with paper towels. Allow your boots to dry naturally and slowly avoiding any direct sunlight or heat at all times.
After cleaning, spray with Sheepskin Stain & Water Repellent to help protect against any future damage or stains!
