Historia
Tom Romeo founded Bearpaw in 2001 in Citrus Heights, California. The brand emerged during a period of high demand for sheepskin footwear, providing an alternative to established luxury labels. It gained cultural significance by making the sheepskin boot silhouette more accessible to the mass market. Over two decades, the company expanded its catalog to include various seasonal styles while maintaining its focus on shearling-lined products and durable construction.
