Our Story
Mandic Shoes is an Australian owned and operated family business started by our father Bozo (Bill) Mandic' and now with the 2nd generation.
It was Bill's dream to build a business that produced quality Australia Made Footwear. As an emigrate from Croatia, he arrived in 1958 and embraced the Aussie Culture. He loved this Country and injected this passion into his work by using both Kangaroo leather and Australian Sheepskins
Mandic shoes was one of the first companies to produce UGG boots for the mainstream market back in the 1960's when it all started with the surfing culture.
The business grow and expanded with our brands FRISKY, that was hugely successful selling pony club riding boots to thousands of Aussies kids and Western and line dancing boots for men and women.
SCRUB UGG is our Australia Made sheepskin UGG boot range which is still 100% Made in Sydney using Australia sheepskins.
MACARTHUR is our premium boot range. Using the best craftsmanship to offer the highest quality in stylish boots for men and women. Macarthur is a nod to our location - the factory moved to the Macarthur region in 1970's with Bill again being a trailblazer and building one of the first factories in this now thriving region.
The latest addition to the MACARTHUR range is our kangaroo leather boots which just provide additional Aussie value.
JAM LIFESTYLES & Accessories is the next generation of Mandic Shoes to offer online, direct access to our products and to offer addition lifestyle products. Stay tuned for exciting updates to the range.
