Perfect for protecting Native American feet from severe conditions, moccasins were a necessary part of Native American culture and lifestyle. Each tribe made moccasins that were tailored to their specific habitat. One could even tell the tribal origin of a footprint left by a moccasin.
The word moccasin, which has language origins with Eastern North American tribes, traditionally referred to a shoe with a puckered u-shaped 'vamp' over the instep. Today the word moccasin generally refers to all types of hard and soft-soled shoes, with and without puckered toes. Women's moccasins, in particular, were often beaded or embroidered- much like moccasins today. A beautiful tradition, moccasins are some of the most proudly, and oldest worn shoes in the world.
Today's womens moccasins take into consideration this culture and tradition while providing comfort and style fit for a queen. With an amazingly soft insole, there is not a more comfortable pair of womens shoes than womens moccasins. Some say fashion can only be found in a pair of stilettos. We say it is time to kick off those pair of heels and give your feet the respect they deserve.
