About this product
BEADING WITH MEANING
Redesigned by a Native American artist.
Say hello to the new Thunderbird - beautifully and meaningfully redesigned by Minneapolis-based Native American designer, mentor and educator, Lucie Skjefte. As a citizen of the Red Lake Nation, her vibrant beading design for this shoe collection pays homage to her Anishinaabe heritage and her son, Animikii - whose name translates to "Thunderbird" in Ojibwemowin.
For every Thunderbird “Animikii” pair purchased, a product lifetime royalty will be paid to Lucie for her original design and a donation will be made to a Native American organization of Lucie’s choice.
