Moccasins:

A totally traditional moccasin patterned after museum photos and displays, as well as antique shoe repairs.

Combined with a variety of leggin' styles, to suit all possibilities. It is a low-top moccasin with an inset/welted sole i.e. "turn shoe." The look can be altered to suit all types of re-enactment costume.

Style A - Has a longer cut cuff fringed to within 2" of the top of the moccasin. The tongue is fringed to match the cuff.
Style B - This moccasin has a long-point cuff, top drawstring and a tongue cut along the natural edge of the hide.
The tongues of both are very long. Tongue can also be squared off, shortened and/or doubled over or cut to a "snake tongue".

Leggin's:

Originally designed for protection, they are now favored for their decorative use. These four styles are only a beginning - make them of fur, bead them, paint them!


Style A - The simplest, with a drawstring under the knee and ties down the side, it includes a cuff or alternate fringing.
Style B - A comfort option, ties above the knees.
Style C - This is the most versatile and functional with a different look. With drawstrings both above and below the knee, you can change the look daily.
Style D - Is any of the above but with all the thongs cut very long so they can be wrapped in rings around the leg, binding the entire unit close. Very comfortable, even over jeans or boots!
