| The Chillbies Company began in 2019 and hit its stride in the Fall of 2020 when a version of a waterproof Chelsea boot dubbed, the Chillcie boot was released, but officially sold under the name the "Chillbie Mid". The Chillbies company has been well received by the outdoor community and has what some may call a "cult following". Product specific press outlets have described a pair of Chillbies as "a sturdy pair of rubber galoshes you don't have to struggle to get into". The first pair of Chillbies came into thought when founder, Flowers, needed an easy slip on waterproof shoe that was also durable enough for outdoor activities such as kicking over a stump or pedaling a bicycle. At the time of inception the marketplace only offered cheaply injected molded alternatives that were primarily focused on summer or beach activities and lacked waterproofing. Function came first and thus the addition of a roomy foot bed, ensuring ease of entry into a solid waterproof boot sole, and a footbed which would provide comfort on the longer days. The exterior of a pair of Chillbies take on a utilitarian feel and industrial look, weight and feel. Balance is applied to the silhouette through manually hand cutting the edge of the uppers to give a human touch to each pair of Chillbies, "I feel it's the perfect blend of tactility and modern manufacturing". (-Caleb Flowers)
ABOVE: This approx. 2019 picture shows the first production run of Chillbies. Produced in the "information" area used for holding stock in the back of the HATHENBRUCK(TM) warehouse. The door to the warehouse still has the "information" sign hanging until this day. The first production run picture comes compliments of Caleb himself, who reports that at the time of the the photo, "The footwear was yet to be named but the tagline (waterproof in the front) had already become a mainstay when describing them". Dancer Copenhagen, had an excellent collaboration with Chillbies in the early part of 2020. In part, the collaboration was also sold at Tres-Bein in London and Malmo. The Chillbies company has stayed in the hands of its creator since inception and continues to service customers globally today with an outdoor and outside of the box point-of view.
