Moccasins, Moccasins, Moccasins

Welcome to V1.3
Moccasins, Moccasins, Moccasins

Yes we wrote moccasins three times! And guess what? It started snowing in Calgary today!  We welcome the snow with open arms and snow shovels! We are in for some snow again and you know what that means. Shoveling  snow again. But how about the warm up after being in the cold all day? Its one thing we look forward to after a long day out in the cold. Just imagine coming in from the cold and the aroma of hot coco in the air and a pair of comfy moccasins to slip your feet into while you have a seat next to the  fire place.  Sounds like a good idea and Canadian OutFooters is a great place to find your next  pair.

So how do you go about finding the right pair of moccasins at Canadian OutFooters. Well the first thing you will need is your correct shoe size. To choose the right size of moccasin is simple. Traditional moccasins are made in whole sizes only. So you will need to determine what whole size you need. We will start with ladies sizing. Ladies need to order their true size. If your shoe size is a half size then you need to order half size down. If your shoe size is a whole size then order that size.

Example 1:  Eve wears 7 1/2 shoes so  Eve needs to order size 7   

Example 2: Jane wears 7 shoes so Jane needs to order size 7

Now we will look at mens sizing. Men need to order their true size. So if your shoe size is a whole size then order that size and just when you thought you figured it out! If your shoe size is a half size, then you need to order up a half size.  

Example  1: Adam wears size 10 1/2 so Adam needs to order size 11

Example 2: Tarzan Wears size 10 so Tarzan needs to order size 10

Ok so we are on to the next step in your search for the right pair of moccasins.

You need to decide on lining or not. While some like the feel of fleece lining ((synthetic (wool/acrylic blend)) Others prefer a natural wool or sheepskin. All three types are very popular for different reasons. Fleece moccasins tend to be less expensive and keep your feet warm but tend to get damp from the moisture from your feet. Natural wool is more expensive than Fleece but less expensive than Sheepskin. The natural wool fibers will absorb moisture from your feet keeping them dry and warm. Finaly sheepskin is the most expensive lining, it absorbs moisture from your feet keeping them dry and warm but is noticeably more comfortable and softer than the fleece and natural wool lining.

Moccasins without lining are most often made with a padded leather or suede sole. They are best suited for wear on tile and hardwood floors. These are most popular among men. They are also great for use in your backyard and on the patio and deck.

Deciding on what type of sole depends on the use of your new moccasins. If you plan on wearing your moccasins around town you will need a gum rubber sole. However if you are using them on the patio, backyard or around the house you can expect to get years out of a pair of leather or suede soled moccasins.

Now your ready  for your next pair of moccasins.
