WHO WE ARE

Alvies is a boot and flip-flop brand that sells exclusively online and at events around Austin. We’re all about making high-quality, good-lookin’ products that:

Promote the balance of boots and flip-flops, and that all you need is a pair of each if you’re living right

Defy footwear stereotypes, proving you don’t have to be a cowboy to wear boots or a hippie to wear flip-flops

Share the fun, laid-back Austin lifestyle with the world

We’re a brand with a personal story — our products have the name of our founder on them. It’s also the name of his father, grandfather, great grandfather, and now his infant son. We see that as a responsibility to make great products and provide outstanding customer service.

Everyone on our small team of full-time employees and extended team of agencies and freelancers believes in our products and our mission. We’re all focused on creating an enjoyable experience for our customers, and pride ourselves on hiring great people to help us do that. We look for employees with balance: talented yet humble, professional yet laid back, hard workers who know life isn’t all about work. Basically our hiring policy is this: No assholes.
