About Us

At Sheepskin And Things, we are dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich heritage of Canadian craftsmanship. Founded in 2004 and rebranded in 2024 by Sean Dupuis in Nanaimo, our store specializes in a curated selection of handcrafted products that reflect the artistry of local artisans from Vancouver Island. Our offerings include premium Canadian-made moccasins, mukluks, fur hats, and a variety of gift items, all designed with a commitment to quality and authenticity.

Our handcrafted children's moccasins are particularly noteworthy, made from high-quality Canadian suede and moosehide. These moccasins are designed to provide exceptional comfort and durability, essential for the active lives of young explorers. With unique features such as intricate beadwork and foam-padded insoles, our products not only celebrate traditional craftsmanship but also ensure that children can navigate their world in both style and comfort.

In addition to footwear, we proudly offer First Nations books and other culturally significant items, fostering a deeper understanding of Indigenous heritage. We believe that by supporting local artisans and promoting Canadian-made products, we contribute to the sustainability of our communities and the preservation of traditional skills. Our commitment to quality and craftsmanship is reflected in every item we sell, ensuring that our customers receive products that are not only beautiful but also built to last.
