  • Indonesian Footwear Producers Launch New Product Lines Suitable for Canadian Consumers
    CANADA–INDONESIA TRADE AND TPSA PRIVATE SECTOR ASSISTANCE PROJECT Indonesian Footwear Producers Launch New Product Lines Suitable for Canadian Consumers Many SMEs in the Indonesian footwear sector focus on the domestic market and lack exporting experience. This was true for the five TPSA-sponsored footwear SMEs. One area where they lacked expertise or knowledge was in developing new products to meet the needs of the Canadian and North American consumer. In response, the project focused on supporting production of new footwear products that are in demand not only in Canada but worldwide. EXPANDING FROM MILITARY TO STREETWEAR Sisters Henny and Lenny Setiadi run Venamon, a company that makes footwear for the Indonesian army and local police forces.

  • Autumn / Winter 2020 Footwear
    AUTUMN / WINTER 2020 FOOTWEAR. SHOES. 9 BOOTS. 35 HOLIDAY. 95 SLIPPERS. 101 SOCKS. 107 ACCESSORIES. 119 APPENDIX. 125 SEASONAL OVERVIEW. Past the glitz and glam of Hollywood, California offers more than meets the eye. This season, we were inspired by our home state’s breathtaking landscapes. The beauty in nature is obvious, but to understand its purpose, you have to interact with it. In nature, in life, and at UGG, what you see is not all you get. Many brands lean towards either fashion or function, but UGG has always em- braced both. From fluff and sneakers to Classics and cold-weather boots, for AW20 we translate our world-renowned wearing experience into a variety of sil- houettes so you can feel as good as you look — no matter the occasion. Our women’s fluff selection builds on emerging runway trends, debuting flatform silhouettes designed to make a statement both indoors and out. Inspired by the rebels and provocateurs who have historically called California home, we also reimagine the Classic Mini with edgy styles that pay respect to our brand history. Adding weather-ready features to a wide range of women’s footwear, we offer boots with enhanced protection from the elements. Lastly, our holiday collection channels the California night sky with a rich color palette and glittering stars. The AW20 men’s assortment channels Yosemite’s rugged beauty with styles that are tougher and more functional than ever before. Updated with rich waterproof leathers to keep them looking better for longer, we introduce boots with the light- weight cushioning and flexibility of a sports shoe, plus the grip and stability of a hiking boot.

High Style Queen Anne House, 1315 McKinley Avenue featuring an irregular roof form and slightly off-center two-story tower with conical roof on the front elevation. The single-story porch has an off-center entry accented with a shallow pediment. Eastlake details like spindles, a turned balustrade, and turned posts adorn the porch, which extends across the full front elevation and wraps around one corner. The house at 1315 McKinley Avenue also displays a wraparound porch, spindle detailing, steep roof, fish scale wall shingles, and cut-away bay on the front elevation. An umbrage porch on the second floor and multi-level gables on the primary façade add to the asymmetrical character of the house. More typical examples of Queen Anne houses in the district display a variety of these stylistic features. Examples of more common Queen Anne residences in Bay City include 1214 Fifth Street, 600 North Monroe Street, and 1516 Sixth Street (Figures 6.2-9, 6.2-10, and 6.2-11). In general, these buildings have irregular footprints and roof forms. Hipped roofs with cross-gabled bays are common, as are hip-on-gable or jerkinhead details. Porch styles vary but typically extend across the full or partial length of the front elevation and wrap around the building corner.
