“We proudly ship our Made in Australia Redback Boots to retailers and consumers from coast to coast through Evolution Fulfillment. It’s incredibly reassuring to know that every order is handled with precision and shipped out as quickly as possible.”
— Kathy Keating, Revolution Supply Co Ltd.

Some brands are built to scale. Others are built to last.

Redback Boots is both.

Redback isn’t a new story. It’s a five-generation story.

Owned and operated by the Cloros family, the company’s roots go back to the early 1900s—a time when craftsmanship wasn’t a marketing angle, it was simply the way things were done. Today, that same mindset still defines the brand.

Every pair of Redback boots is handmade in Australia. Every step of the process is overseen in their factory in Alexandria, Sydney. In a world where so much manufacturing has been outsourced, Redback has stayed committed to doing things the right way—even when it’s harder.

Their approach to product design is straightforward. They focus on the people who wear their boots, the environments they work in, and the demands placed on them every day. From there, they build something that performs—consistently and without compromise.

The result is a product that reflects the Australian work ethic: tough, practical, and built without unnecessary complexity. No shortcuts. No overengineering. Just boots that do their job.

That durability starts with the materials.

Redback sources premium full-grain leather exclusively from Australia and New Zealand—hides that are thicker, more resilient, and better suited to demanding conditions than standard materials. Each hide is carefully selected, treated, and cut to maximize both comfort and longevity.

Whether the requirement is resistance to water, heat, or oil, every design decision ties back to performance. The leather is built to withstand the same conditions as the people wearing it.

What sets Redback apart isn’t just heritage—it’s consistency.

For nearly a century, the company has followed the same philosophy: control the process, focus on quality, and never lose sight of the end user. That means no compromise on materials, no outsourcing of critical production steps, and no disconnect between design and real-world use.

While the boots are made in Sydney, their reach extends far beyond Australia.

Through partners like Evolution Fulfillment, Redback Boots are shipped efficiently across North America, connecting Australian craftsmanship with retailers and customers thousands of miles away. It’s a combination that works—heritage manufacturing on one side, modern, reliable distribution on the other.

Because when the product is built right, the rest of the experience has to match.

Despite its long history, Redback is not standing still. The brand continues to evolve—refining its products, expanding its reach, and staying true to the principles that built it.

That’s what makes it compelling.

Not just where it came from—but how it continues to move forward.

How Evolution Fulfillment Helped Gentle Fawn with their 3PL Needs

Overpromised and underserviced, Danny & Carla of Gentle Fawn were frustrated enough to seek out a better third-party logistics company for their warehousing and distribution needs. What they ended up with was a more efficient business and more money in the bank.

In Danny’s Own Words

The Backstory

“Prior to moving our goods to Evolution Fulfillment, we had used two other warehouses to manage our third-party logistics needs. Both of the facilities were very large and at times, we felt that, due to the volumes, the timelines surrounding the servicing of our product fell behind the larger brands. The other warehouses that we dealt with did not process our inventory as promised, we were promised 100% verification of all inbound product and had paid for that service, but found out later that that only a percentage of the inbound product had been verified. We had also been promised that our commodities would be processed within certain timelines but quite often during peak seasons timelines were not met. We were also promised that staff would be available after hours and on weekends, but when this service was required, it was not available.

The biggest problem was that the warehouses IT was not compatible with our IT and they didn’t have a plan to integrate it in a way that would work for us. So this caused a lot of extra work and duplication of work.”

The Evolution Solution

“When we moved all of the product over to Evolution Fulfillment, Evolution Fulfillment guaranteed 100% verification of all inbound and outbound product, Evolution Fulfillment provided Service Level Agreements letting us know exactly what to expect and has been able to meet all of the SLA expectations through effective communication with our Production Team. By reaching out to our team prior to the busy season, Evolution Fulfillment has staffed accordingly to ensure that all SLA’s are met.

Evolution Fulfillment has scheduled additional staff on evenings and weekends to meet important deadlines for us and feels just as responsible for the success of our business, as they do their own.

Evolution Fulfillment’s programmers have worked tirelessly to ensure that our IT is compatibly integrated, allowing us to manage our business more efficiently.

When we moved our Accounting, Accounts Receivable and Credit Management over to Evolution Fulfillment, we saved approximately 20% in administrative costs from having the staff in house. Evolution’s Accounts Receivable team focuses on managing healthy customer relationships with a continued focus on ensuring that we have been paid.”

Positive Results

Better technology, cost savings and improved service gave Family Business a more profitable and efficient business.

• Saved ~20% from outsourcing administration.
• True IT integration between warehouse and Family Business reduced administration, streamlined reporting and increased the both quality and speed of key information.
• Realized 100% verification on all inbound and outbound product.
• Contracted SLA regarding delivery expectations and peak period staffing gave brand peace of mind on hitting delivery dates

“Evolution’s team-oriented problem-solving approach and commitment to seamless experiences have made our collaboration both efficient and enjoyable.”

– Genna Thies, Director of Operations, Gentle Fawn
