WE'VE BEEN NOMINATED FOR A SHE-COM AWARD AND WE NEED YOUR VOTE!
We have some exciting news to share, and honestly, we're still a little bit giddy about it.
PaperKrane has been nominated for the SHE-com Women in E-Commerce People's Choice Award 2026, and this one is decided entirely by you, our community.
What is the SHE-com People's Choice Award?
SHE-com is Australia's fastest-growing community for women in e-commerce, and every year they celebrate the female-founded brands doing incredible things online. Most of their award categories are judged by an industry panel, but the People's Choice is different. There are no score cards, no criteria, no panel of judges. Just real people voting for the brands they genuinely love.
That makes this one extra special to us 💛
Why This Means So Much to Us
Since we started PaperKrane back in 2012, everything we've built has been because of you... the people who believed in foot-shaped shoes before they were cool, who bought a pair for their kid on a hunch, who sent us photos of your whole family in PKs. You've been with us through every new style, every collab, every "we just dropped something wild" moment.
Being nominated for a community-voted award feels like a full-circle moment. We didn't get here by following the crowd, we got here by freeing feet, one pair at a time, with the support of a community that genuinely cares.
