Stoney Creek, ON – January 30, 2014 – With all the changes happening at Baffin, it is nice to see that some things remain the same. Based on the original mold from 1997, Baffin is proud to launch the boot that started it all – The Heritage.
With a layering structure inspired by the Inuit, Baffin developed technologies to modernize the traditional approach. “From the five layer Inuit boot, Baffin’s eight layer system came to fruition and remains at the core of our equity today,” says Brand Manager, Mark Hubner. “It’s important to remember and celebrate our roots, and what better way to do so then recreating the boot that sparked our success in the cold weather industry.”
Fully assembled at Baffin’s Stoney Creek headquarters, this limited edition boot features leathers sourced from Quebec, natural beaver trim from the West Coast, and bases molded right in their head office warehouse attachment, this limited edition boot is the definition of a true Canadian product! President Paul Hubner says that, “Part of Baffin’s heritage is in this box. Without this technology, we wouldn’t be the company we are today, which is why we want to celebrate our success and manufacture a purely Canadian boot.”
In addition to a number of brand new brand developments, Baffin launched The Heritage Boot at the Outdoor Retailer Tradeshow and Expo in Salt Lake City January 2014.
