Dubarry Ireland

"From Ballinasloe to coastlines, country estates and sailing decks around the world, Dubarry has been creating enduring Irish lifestyle footwear since 1937."

Founded in Ballinasloe, County Galway in 1937, Dubarry of Ireland began as a co-operative factory created to bring employment and craft to the west of Ireland. Its early story is rooted in footwear, technical skill and the practical needs of Irish life, with the brand later developing into one of Ireland’s best-known names in country, coastal and outdoor lifestyle.

Today, Dubarry is known internationally for premium country boots, deck shoes, sailing footwear, clothing, leather goods and accessories. Its famous Galway Country Boot has become a signature product, originally connected to technical sailing development and later embraced by customers for outdoor pursuits, country living, dog walking, equestrian settings and everyday style.

With a factory outlet in Ballinasloe, a Dublin flagship store and a strong online presence, Dubarry brings together Irish heritage, practical performance and enduring design. For W.ie, Dubarry represents a distinctive Irish lifestyle brand: rooted in Galway, recognised far beyond Ireland, and especially relevant for people who love the countryside, coast, sailing, travel and quality outdoor clothing.
