EMU Australia was born in Geelong in the heart of Australia’s prime wool growing district which is just minutes from the world-renowned Bells Beach, on Great Ocean Road. It was here in the 1970's that local Australian surfers invented the original ugly sheepskin boot. The EMU Australia brand emerged out of Jackson’s tannery, which was one of Australia’s largest sheepskin tanneries.

Established in 1948, this family owned business employed many workers from the Geelong area, who continue to work on the same site for the EMU brand today. These employees have a wealth of knowledge that they acquired from the beginning, when sheepskin boots were first crafted in this very area.

EMU, pronounced eem-you (Not eem-moo!) is the name of Australia’s national bird. Emu's history is rich, its products iconic. EMU believes in the brand, the premium products and the amazing things that their people do.
