Does anyone remember those mukluk-style slippers that were popular like 12 years ago?

They looked sort of Native Indian in style... they were knitted slippers with a thin leather sole, they went up to the top of your calves, and just had a string to tighten them. They usually had a design knitted into them. What were they called? Can you still get them anywhere?

Mukluk%26#039;s are the varient for moccasin%26#039;s..A higher profile..designed for winter wear..Developed by the Inuit and Eskimo people%26#039;s of our far north...





Became stylish, years ago for a couple year%26#039;s..Mostly knock offs of the real thing. Not very practical..Yes you can still get the real ones up here where I live...The local native ladies still make them...They run anywhere from $150.00 to $500.00 per pair, depending on the hide used, beading and design...





Try looking up these two magazines in your browser...%26quot;Up Here%26quot;...and The %26quot; Alaska Magazine%26quot;...There are ads in there for them...Wait a min...Just looked it up for you in %26quot;Alaska%26quot;...Here you go..Made in Minnesota..even so, these are good...
