We walk together
The Manitobah Mukluks x Christi Belcourt x Pendleton Blanket; an inspired collaboration.
As an Indigenous-owned company, our vision is to build a vibrant global brand that makes a significant impact in Indigenous communities. For this collaboration, we partnered with Christi Belcourt, a Métis visual artist, who shares a deep respect for Indigenous traditions and knowledge. Her work often explores and celebrates the beauty of the natural world. Together, we've created a limited edition Pendleton blanket using signature floral motifs found in both her work and ours.
