    Stunning 1 of a kind handmade intricate pair of Inuit Canada's Arctic Mukluks with wolf fur, caribou leather and hand sewn wool duffle lining. They are for an approx. 10 year old child.
    They were bought in Yellowknife, North West Territories to wear with snowshoes. These handmade snowshoe boots consist of an outer moccasin, the upper part being made of  caribou leather and wolf fur, and the foot from a single piece of caribou hide.There are two linings inside that are made of heavy wool felt or duffle : one tall one to cover the leg and foot, and a lower slipper to keep the foot warm.
    Superb collector’s item, or to wear as your childs favourite pair of winter slippers or after ski boots.
