Siberian boots - the shoes are very warm and comfortable. Today, manufacturers perform them in a wide variety of designs. Siberian boots can be worn even during frosts of forty-five degrees. But let's start from the very beginning.
Siberian boots - how it all began
So, in order. Siberian boots in Russia appeared, first of all, thanks to the Tyumen. In this kingdom of cold, it is simply impossible to do without warm shoes. Siberian felt boots allowed people to feel convenience and comfort.
At the beginning of the last century, a certain entry was made by the Tyumen merchant Nikolai Chukmaldin. She said that Siberian boots are reliable protectors from snowstorms and cold. More than a hundred years have passed, but little has changed. These shoes remain the most suitable for Siberian winters - warm and soft.
What is happening today?
In 2003, Tyumen shoe factory purchased equipment for manufacturing felt boots. This company owns two factories. One of them is located in Talitsa in the Middle Urals, the second - in Shadrinsk in the Trans-Urals. Here, Siberian felt boots are produced in considerable quantities. As they are called, every resident of this region knows. Rods are made in a million pairs annually. They are transported over a vast territory from Sakhalin to Lithuania. They are acquired by both the natives of the Far North and the elders of Alma-Ata. This product is also sent to European countries.
Feeling of patriotism
Many residents of Russia, feeling like real patriots, acquire Siberian boots. Their name is wire rod. And they know about them outside our homeland. Here, foreigners buy them even as souvenirs. In a word, boots are sold very well. According to the head of the Tyumen Shoe Factory, at the end of the sales season, almost nothing remains in the warehouse. Every year, the production of felt boots in factories only increases.
You can easily choose exactly what you need for yourself. Male, female and children's, rubberized and working - there are many options. The color scheme also pleases customers with its diversity. Prices for boots are quite affordable - from 90 to 250 Russian rubles. It all depends on the quality and size.
Consumers
Siberian felt boots, in principle, are shoes made in the style of "unisex". Female models from male models are practically no different. They are divided rather by size. Women's boots are considered to be shoes from 23 to 27 sizes, men's - from 28 to 35.
Most consumers of Siberian boots are corporate clients. They are acquired, as a rule, by railway workers, power engineers, gas workers, and oil workers. Manufacturers of shoes work with many large companies that make serious orders. However, this is not surprising. It is promising and profitable.
Make boots all year round. Even in the summer, in the great heat, factory workers make sure that people do not freeze in the cold in winter.
In addition to the Tyumen shoe factory, boots in Russia are also made in Kukmor and Tatarstan. There are, of course, other factories. However, they are very small. They produce no more than three hundred boots a year. Well, and, by and large, in Russia there are fifteen enterprises that are engaged in the production of these shoes. There are thirty-five small factories today.
They have been wearing boots in Siberia since the middle of the 18th century. The European part of Russia adopted them at the beginning of the 19th century. Even Peter I used these shoes. Moreover, in very interesting situations. For headaches, he put on boots on his bare foot and ate a plate of hot cabbage soup. The problem was easily fixed. Sheep's wool allows you to expand blood vessels, warming your legs. Blood circulation is restored throughout the body.
In a word, the history of production of boots in our country began a long time ago. It ends, too, not today. Be sure, the purchase of these shoes will only please you and allow you to feel comfort and coziness.
