It’s a special weekend in The Netherlands. 

 

Sinterklaas is coming..

 

The feast of Sinterklaas celebrates the name day of Saint Nicholas on the 6^th of December, an annual celebration with the giving of gifts on St. Nicholas Eve on the evening of the 5^th. Sinterklaas is characterised as a stately man, elderly, with white hair and a long, full beard. He wears red and is one of the sources in which Santa Claus as we know him today is based.

 

Very much a festival for the young, children are encouraged to leave a boot by the fireplace, so Sinterklaas can leave behind a special treat as he travels through the land.

 

Like Thanksgiving, the festival is where families and friends come together.

 

Even though we are adults, the Team is looking forward to lighting the fire, opening a bottle of wine and having fun with the family.  Friends will be a little on the ground this year as we are back in a mini lockdown, but we are all ready for a little time out.

 

This weekend we will be not check emails as we are taking time away from boots, especially as they will be sat by the fire waiting for something special to be popped  in.

 

Even so there is no better time to order a pair of boots in time for The Holidays.

 

Please don’t forget, following advice from our shipping partner FedEx, we have brought our Christmas delivery deadline forward to the 10^th of December.  We want our shipping partner to have the best opportunity to get your wide calf boots to you in good time so you can wear them over The Holidays.
