What are the "Leaf" Moccasins ?
They are soft-soled shoes or barefoot shoes. Made of 100% leather, they act and feel just like a second skin.
They will well protect your feet from sharp objects, dirt, etc; while at the same time allowing you to feel the ground’s texture.
They are suitable to wear indoors and outdoors although they will need to be re-soled once in a while for durability.
This design is made in 2 pieces of leather which allows you to use 2 colors. It is appropriate for people that need/like a larger toe-box and/or have a strong instep.

- With practice, a pair can be made in only 2-3 hours, but it will usually take about 1 day on the first trial.
