Innovative Product to Protect Your Boots

May 4, 2005 by Designer Ella

Have you found the perfect pair of boots, ones that ride high up your calf and look oh-so hot? I bet you paid a pretty penny for “the ones.” Now there is a product made just to protect your boots!

Do you hate to see your expensive boots falling off your shoe rack or flopping over in your closet? Dread pulling them creased and folded up, out of your suitcase when traveling?

The Bootleg - Keep your boots standing tall - accessory - The Creative Queen I am honored to introduce to you; The Bootleg. Keeping boots on the straight and narrow is their mission.

It’s about time

With the spring weather upon us and sandals once again making their way into our daily wardrobe, boots are relegated to the shelves of the closet. It really is up to their owner to make sure they are properly stored in order to prolong their shape and condition. The arrival of The Bootleg will - thank goodness - mean the end for home-made remedies such as bunches of balled up newspaper…and frankly, it’s about time. Our boots deserve much better.

The Bootleg is sturdy but lightweight, in a black satin fabric with a white grosgrain ribbon pull-loop on the top for easy insertion into and removal from boots.

This well designed, boot-life saver costs $23 (28 CAD).

The Bootleg was launched to be purchased on CreativeQueen.com May 1st, but is already sold-out for the time being! It will arrive in boutiques and shoe stores throughout Canada and the US, shortly hereafter.

Intrigued?

The woman behind the tool is the president of Creative Queen Enterprises, Tamara Nowakowsky. Queen Tamara is truly the renaissance woman of the 21st century. She is a journalist, a t.v. host, a producer, a craftsy artist, an entrepreneur, an inventor, a sporty chick, a charity worker, she even worked with the band U2 and is considering applying to be Martha Stewart’s Apprentice, (if they only will accept candidates from Canada)!

Straight from the every woman’s words,

I am passionate about learning, love hearing other people’s stories, and enjoy new experiences more than anything. I believe that only boring people get bored, and as such have spent a great deal of my life either learning new skills or being in the constant search for new adventures. As a result I have worked in such unusual jobs as nude figure modeling for artists, being a clown at a zoo, and as a 911 operator… and oh yeah, I still plan to go to law school one day.

Wow. Does anyone else want to crawl up in a fuzzy throw blanket and eat a pint of Ben & Jerry’s right now? It’s okay, put on your favorite pair of perfectly protected boots, and you’ll be feeling fabulous again in no time.

I have to say, my own recipe for boot straightness — a couple of brown paper grocery bags, rolled up into tubes — has served me well over the years… and I have lots of boots. My method is ecological, the paper absorbs moisture, and it is cheap, leaving more money for … boots.
