The design of moccasins derives from Native-America, worn by tribes, moccasins were traditionally crafted from deerskin or soft leathers like suede. Considered the oldest form of footwear, it’s thought that moccasins date back as far as 30,000 BC, yet they still remain a favourite footwear choice for casual wardrobes.
The defining characteristics of a moccasin shoe lies in their soft materials and construction, built from under the foot, the upper starts under the sole and wraps over the foot. Traditionally this would help its wearer keep light on their feet when hunting, but these days you’ll find a moccasin to be finished with a rubber sole.
