Comfort in all the right places.
Welcome to Tin Shack, Canada’s source of legendary Australian Blundstone and Glerups slippers from Denmark.
Our journey began in the mid-1990’s, working out of a “tin shack” shipping container in Collingwood, Ontario where we committed to a focus on foot comfort—and a good crackling fire! Having origins in the marketing and brewing industries, our founders’ goal was to set realistic sales targets—then beat them—and have fun doing so. It’s a great brew—the formula worked!
Today, the Tin Shack team manages distribution and warehousing in Collingwood, built to supply 700 of Canada’s top footwear retailers, including direct-to-consumer sites blundstone.ca, australianboot.com and glerups.ca. From here we support with an exceptional customer experience, warranty, sales and marketing teams. Tin Shack grows with great people, starting within our own four tin walls. A focus on retention, personal development—and fun—led to a cherished “Great Place to Work™” designation, an honour proudly worn and practiced daily. Great place to grow, too!
The “comfort” ethos extends far beyond the comfort of our Collingwood home. For our retail partners, real-time inventory management tools such as SAP and NuOrder to make it painless to place an order from anywhere 24/7. Tin Shack partners focus on fitting comfortable footwear, not paperwork.
