In the Great Bear Rainforest on the coastal islands of British Columbia, there lives a rare & magnificent creature known as the Spirit bear (the "Kermode" bear). While the bear's fur is usually a beautiful black, about 1 in 10 is born a snowy white due to a recessive gene mutation. Folklore states that the bears got their color during the last ice age when white was needed for camouflage. Representing peace and a reminder of more difficult times, these bears are critical to the local ecosystem. This earthy design showcases the bear in its natural habitat but with a ring of focus, paying homage to such a rare beauty.
- Storage Tips: To keep your runners in optimal condition for longer, after each wear, allow them to air out and dry properly. Store where temperatures are stable and normal; not in attics, garages, car trunks or any damp, hot or unventilated places.
- Cleaning Tips: To remove dirt, soiled runners can be cleaned with warm water, mild dishwashing soap, and a brush (a toothbrush works) or clean towel. If you are doing a deep clean, you may want to remove the footbed so you can reach into edges and corners. We do not recommend putting Inkkas shoes in the washing machine.
