Lady Foot Locker’s Lauren Bristow Talks Shop with BEARPAWstyle

Posted in: Charitable Causes, Events, Inspiration

By: Tessah Schoenrock

BEARPAW loves to get involved with the community, especially when it comes to charitable causes. It’s a year-round endeavor, but I wanted to call attention to a very special Lady Foot Locker holiday boot giveaway the brand participated in (alongside collaborator Karina Smirnoff) to distribute free BEARPAW boots to needy women. How cool is it for a large company like LFL to get involved with a charitable group Women in Need to host an event that produces immediate, direct results in the form of a straight-up practical and stylish gift to over 1,000 women in need across the five boroughs of New York?

Glee Cast and 49ers’ Vernon Davis Already Loving BEARPAW Mens Collection

Posted in: Celebrity Style Watch, Entertainment

By: Tessah Schoenrock

The new BEARPAW Men’s Collection is officially out, featuring four brand new styles for men alongside the two classics already offered, the Stowe and Dream boots.

This new collection has been a long time coming for BEARPAW, who has enjoyed great success in the women and children’s footwear market, and has had fans clamoring for a wider selection of styles for men. The Fall 2011 line retails for $110-$140, and features tumble leathers and oil-pressed suedes that set the collection apart from the women’s or children’s lines with more masculine textures. Celebs are already flipping out over the mens boots and moccasins – hmm, jealous of your girlfriends much, guys? Read More…

Posted in: Charitable Causes

The holiday season may be behind us, but here at BEARPAW, we’re still caught up in the excitement over our Spread the Love, Share the Comfort Holiday Campaign. The response has been so heart-warming that we thought we’d share some stories with our readers!

Jessica Kirby (who nominated the Preston family, pictured), told us, “The holidays are about giving back, and delivering the BEARPAW gift package to the Preston family completely warmed my heart. This inspiring family is very special and seeing the joy on their faces was amazing. As predicted, Elizabeth ‘paid it forward’ and helped another struggling family with some of the gifts she received, so they could also have a Merry Christmas.” Read More…

When Extra TV brought their cameras to the Jami Lynn boutique in Beverly Hills to tape a segment for its January 6, 2012 Friends Giveaway broadcast, anticipation was in the air. There was excitement over the fact that star Mario Lopez had specifically requested the show conduct an interview with BEARPAW, focusing on the celeb appeal that currently surrounds the brand. From Snooki and Jwoww of Jersey Shore fame to Katie Holmes, famous folks across the globe can be seen in BEARPAW boots and shoes, so it’s only natural that a hot, celeb-centric show like NBC’s Extra would want to cover the brand.

Posted in: Articles, Entertainment

By: Tessah Schoenrock

Tis the season…for the second boot in the Karina Smirnoff “KS” Collection for BEARPAW: the Capulet! Fans of Dancing With the Stars got a sneak peek at the Capulet when the Season 13 Champion wore a pair to her DWTS rehearsals with partner J.R. Martinez.

The just-released Capulet is flying off the shelves, and the first boot in the collection, the Alyeska, continues to do so. Karina’s big win on DWTS, infectious smile, and bubbly personality are only a few reasons why her BEARPAW line is doing so well – the main reason is that the boots are well-crafted, stylish, and in totally in sync with the BEARPAW motto of living life comfortably.

2012 Brings Big Things for BEARPAW

Posted in: Articles, Company News

By: Tessah Schoenrock

Sitting down with BEARPAW CEO Tom Romeo is like hanging out with a big kid who is completely in his element. You know, the sort of kid you envied when you were young and kind of still do because they are totally confident, relaxed, and easy to talk to in any situation. Moments after meeting him I felt like I already knew him – Tom is one of those people who possesses the unique ability to make everyone and anyone feel at home instantly, and it’s something that shines in his personality and his company.
