In 1856 an American from Jersey, Henry Lee Norris, founded Norris&Co in Scotland. Norris&Co later became the North British Rubber Company and which became known as Hunter Boot Ltd. But back then instead of being worn around town by the hottest celebs and icons as a fashion statement, they were distributed to the soldiers in WWI and WWII and worn by all people ranging from the royal family to independent farmers of the region.
So Mom and I splurged. A fun early Christmas buy, but they're also a necessity because I'm guessing the ominous gray clouds will soon relinquish that rain! We bought ours at Madewell (<3) and decided to share.
