Where's Rebecca's Garden?  Rebecca's Garden is now Seasons by Rebecca Kolls Magazine


HOME    


I needed a new pair of garden boots.  I searched high and low.  I couldn’t find a light weight boot – all were made for hiking or construction.  So I went to the people who really understand leather boots and shoes, the Russell Moccasin Company in Berlin, Wisconsin.  The Rebecca Kolls Gardening Shoe is manufactured to my specs by them. Russell has outfitted outdoorsmen and women with the finest, hand made leather moccasin style boots and shoes for more than 107 years.  When I asked the company if they could make up a special shoe, specifically for avid gardeners like you and me, they responded with the most comfortable and totally fun shoe I have ever worn.

My Rebecca Kolls Gardening Shoe is made from the finest materials available.  We designed the shoe to be practical, comfortable...and fun!  My gardening shoe is fashioned from rich caramel Ebbtide leather that is soft, durable and waterproof.  For fun...and function...we added colorful cotton duck inserts in bright red, cobalt blue, emerald green or bright yellow.  The inserts are breathable to maintain your comfort zone all gardening season long.  The super comfortable natural Christie foam wedge sole has very little tread so it won’t pick up mud.  The top height of the shoe is just over the ankle to provide superb ankle support when you are out working in the garden, orchard or woods.   As a finishing touch my Gardening Shoe is fitted with high quality nickel lacing eyelets plus easy on/easy off quick lace studs.  And just for fun, the first eyelets are adorned with chrome watering cans.  Color coordinated laces in yellow, red, blue or green are included.

 



Shoes for Life

Because the Rebecca Kolls Gardening Shoe is built to my specifications by Russell Moccasin’s skilled craftsmen, with proper care, the workmanship and materials on my Garden Shoe should provide a lifetime of wear.   If you should completely wear out the soles, your shoes can be returned to the factory for resoling for a nominal fee.

 (includes 4 oz. Obenauf's Heavy Duty Leather Preservative)

Available Colors - make sure to specify color insert at checkout!

To waterproof and condition the leather of your Rebecca Kolls Gardening Shoe, I recommend using Obenauf’s Heavy Duty Leather Preservative.  Obenauf’s is the finest leather dressing available...restoring natural oils to the leather...plus it is an excellent waterproofing agent that stands up to often moist or wet gardening conditions, (Obenauf works equally well to waterproof the cotton duck inserts).  Apply Obenauf’s to the leather and work in with a hair dryer until the product is absorbed by the leather.  Your shoes will remain waterproof, soft and supple for years to come, even with heavy use.
