Description

The listing, Vintage Native American beaded Moccasins has ended.

These moccasins belonged to my mom. Her father gave them to her.

They lived in Utah and he was a traveling salesmen, often traveling to Montana.

She said they were Blackfeet but I am not sure.

My mom had them since the 1930's.

They are used and have a hole in the right toe.

Questions & Comments

They are about a size 8 maybe 7/12.
I wouldn't wear them...you can if you want, but I wouldn't...too precious.
My mom said they were Blackfeet as her dad and she spent quite a bit of time in Montana. I thought the same but florals were created by tribes in MT as well.

these are definitely for show, not wear. I wouldn't even think of wearing them. I appreciate the beadwork. Used to bead on leather and make jackets, so love anything native american beaded.

If you use the view larger, you can see the size of the hole in the toe of the right foot. Also it shows the sole wear.

Hope that helps
