 Our favs-the Storyboots-replicas of Manitobah Mukluks' commissioned original handcrafted footwear dubbed the Storybook Project" ---that employs elders and artisans who fashion mukluks and moccasin in the traditional ways.


 The artisan collection with hand beaded details-is inspired by the patterns of the traditionally rich craft culture of Native Canadian Aboriginals.
