Summer is officially here and in the Pacific Northwest it is making itself known. Sunshine all day, record breaking temperatures and even heat advisories are in effect.

Luckily, there are lots of ways to stay cool this summer – keeping the blinds & curtains... Summer is officially here and in the Pacific Northwest it is making itself known.

This week has been a big one for Oakiwear. On Tuesday we received our biggest shipment ever- a truckload of 26,000 rubber rain boots! Fitting since we are headquartered in the rainy Pacific Northwest right?! It was an all hands on deck day as we spent a solid 5 hours just unloading the truck. There were boxes as far as the eye could see. Luckily we had enlisted a few... This week has been a big one for Oakiwear.

Needless to say we are becoming experts at finding ways to stay cool. Did... As we’ve mentioned before, this summer has been one of the hottest on record here in the Pacific Northwest.

We are enjoying the last few weeks of summer here in the Pacific Northwest. The heat has certainly died down and the cooler temps are making their way in. School has started for some and for others, there is still time to get a few last minute things together. While we love fall, summer is a hard season to say goodbye to. So, we have made a list of different... We are enjoying the last few weeks of summer here in the Pacific Northwest. The heat has certainly died down and the cooler temps are making their way in.
