Need some inspiration?
This week I set up a 'favorite DYO' page... our favorite shoes and moccasins designed by customers. Every so often we have a pair of shoes or mocs come through the shop that everybody just ohhs and ahhs over. We all want to hold them and look at them in good light. And then we started thinking, why not share your lovely designs with others, especially those who need a little inspiration when trying to come up with their own design. The only bummer about this new webpage is all the wonderful shoes that were shipped out before we got pictures! If you want to see what cool shoes and mocs are out there now, click here.

Trish has been an entrepreneur, marketer and maker ever since she crushed her first lemonade stand at age five. Growing up in rural Wisconsin, she spent many summers running barefoot with her sisters. These early memories later inspired her to build a brand which embraced the joy and freedom of childhood with the health and science of minimal footwear.
Trish relishes evolving the company to grow stronger and more competitive with each passing year. She is a frequent expert panelist for both e-commerce and entrepreneurship conferences. Trish enjoys spending time with her family, dogs and ducks on their property in Oregon and loves the proximity to both surf and snow. She has a background in Engineering Physics and an MBA from the University of Chicago.
