Moccasin Making Workshop

Learn the ancient art of Moccasin making created by people from around the world!

In this one day workshop you will learn the history and importance of moccasin making, as well create your very own soft soled moccasin shoes in true First Nations style.

You will learn to understand how to make a custom pattern, sew leather, and create a form of footwear that will connect you to your ancestral self.

Almost every single northern people wore moccasins. From Celts, Vikings, Slavs, and even First Nations of North America. This style of shoe was one of the biggest human evolutions in footwear.

Making your own footwear is a very intimate experience and you will be connected to them for many years.

The reason the course is so expensive is you are getting **REAL** Buckskin leather. Not pleather, vinyl, or other plastic made products.

Creating real leather is a labour intensive process, specifically leather made from ethically harvested deer.

  • You will learn how to cut, stamp, punch, and sew leather during this workshop

  • All equipment, needles, leather, and everything you need is provided.

    Space is strictly limited.
