It gets cold in Minnesota. Like, really cold. So you know what they put on their feet up there to keep warm? Moccasins. America’s original footwear. For centuries, people in the Great White North have fitted their feet with these warm and comfy creations because they’re practical, cozy, and stylish. And, of course, warm. And since 1946, Minnetonka moccasins have carried on that tradition as the world’s best producer of this traditional yet trendy footwear. Over the years, Minnetonka has expanded its product lines to include sandals, boots, slippers, driving shoes and more. WorkingPerson.com currently supplies Minnetonka moccasins and hats along with various other products.
Minnetonka moccasins got their start in Minnesota, where the company is based. Starting with founder Philip Miller, and now going four generations strong, the company has grown exponentially in the past several decades. The Minnetonka moccasins brand is now worn not just in its native land of America, but on six continents spanning the globe. From the boundary waters of Minnesota to the streets of New York to the runways of Paris to the busy streets of Tokyo and everywhere in between, people are wearing Minnetonka.
The Minnetonka moccasins brand is iconic in fashion, with its classic design that recalls our natural, free-spirited heritage. But now, that brand is changing. Minnetonka is rolling out a new logo in 2012. From now on, the Minnetonka name will stand alone. After all, it’s earned that by now. There will be no more “Minnetonka Moccasin” logo, or “Minnetonka Sandal” logo, or “Minnetonka Slipper” logo, and so on and so forth. It’ll just be “Minnetonka.” That iconic name says it all anyway. The Minnetonka logo is also getting an upgrade. It’ll no longer include the sawtooth design in the logo.
As an Authorized Internet Retailer of Minnetonka, Working Person’s Store will be using the new logo. So don’t be confused if you see something different on our site. It’s still the same great footwear from the same great company. Because while the logo has changed, nothing else has. No matter the footprint, all Minnetonka moccasins, Minnetonka sandals, Minnetonka slippers, Minnetonka boots, and more, are all made with the same uncompromising craftsmanship, and using only the finest materials. Just the way our ancestors would have liked it.
