Sandal 2013 Design Time!

Have you checked out the new Minnetonka sandal line yet? At Minnetonka HQ, we’re already hitting the drawing board to plan for the sandals you’ll be wearing next year, envisioning what you’ll be dancing around beaches and summer boardwalks in for 2013. Here are a couple behind-the-scenes pictures of the sample room our product development team has been getting creative and having fun in  over the past month.

The product development team kicks up their feet at the morning meeting.

Footwear eye candy - the sample wall!

 

We want to bring you to the table to share your design and product ideas. What do you love about the current sandal line? What do you want to see more of (more fringe! more height! more comfort! new colors!)? Please share your product input with us and we’ll keep you updated as we go along.

See you in the sample room!

Hunger Games Style

Hunger Games star rocks the Minnetonka Front Lace Knee Hi Boot

Don’t mess with Hunger Games star, Leven Rambin, who sweated through 3-hours of cardio, four days a week to prep for her role as Glimmer. As seen in Shape Magazine, you can follow the full Hunger Games stuntworthy workout here. Or if you prefer fashion over fighting,  just go for her look with the Minnetonka Front Lace Knee Hi Boot!

Shoe Heaven in London

Hello from London, where excitement (and construction) is abound for the upcoming Olympic Games, and where Carolyn and I made a quick trip to visit stores in the market including the famously fabulous shoe floor at Selfridges department store on Oxford Street.

Carolyn was bubbly getting her photo next to the largest sparkly pump we’ve ever seen (pictured), and we loved seeing Minnetonka styles prominently featured within Office’s cool shoe salon.  Our secret wish is for Princess Catherine to show up wearing a pair of our 5-Layer Fringe Boot at her next event, just like Carolyn!

Cheerio, UK!
