Description

The top part of the uppers of these boots are made from strips of caribou skin with light and dark hair, and a decorative band made from caribou skin with wool embroidery and a ring made of wolverine fur. The cuffs at the openings are made of fabric. The lower parts of the boots above the soles are also made of caribou skins with the hair on the outside. The soles are made from seal skin, and are crimped at the front and back to follow the shape of the foot.
