From Paddock to Pavement

Hi, I’m Dani. In 2014, Melbourne’s unpredictable weather left me searching for comfortable gumboots like those I’d worn growing up on a farm, but smart enough for my office job. When I couldn’t find them, I created Merry People - colourful, 100% waterproof boots, ready for wherever life takes you.

Totally worth it!!

If you've been scrolling and looking at these boots for a while, it's time to buy ! They are fantastic quality, warm and comfortable and the colours are all so good. Worth the price for sure!

Foot heaven

My feet are hard to find good shoes for - I have long narrow feet and wear orthotic supports and I’m very picky with what shoes I buy/wear. I’m on my feet all day for work (hospitality) so my poor tootsies get put through the wringer. These boots tho 😳 they don’t need to be worn in, they are true to size and they are hands down worth every penny. It’s like walking on two retro brightly-coloured clouds. They make me so happy! I bought them to wear to an upcoming 5 day festival and I know they are going to allow me dance more than I ever thought I’d be able to with the way my feet are, without all the discomfort and pain. The socks are gorgeous and such good quality and the words on the toes are a beautiful touch. I usually need thick socks to help support my feet but because the boots are so divine and comfortable, these thinner yet amazing quality socks are the perfect pairing. All my boots and socks from now on will be bought from Merry People. LOVE LOVE LOVE ❤️
