Mean Shoe Game...


Just in time for fall, Quoddy Trail, a shoe company started by the Shorey family of Maine, USA:

...has been making moccasins for generations, beginning with Harry Smith Shorey, in the early 1900s. Started in Downeast Maine, near the shore of the Passamaquoddy Bay, we make traditional moccasin styles using time-honored techniques and quality materials. Each process is done by hand — cutting, skiving, stitching, and handsewing. This is handsewn to the “tip” with locked stitches to ensure comfort and durability, the two most important benefits of moccasin construction. All styles, soled or unsoled, have full leather sock liners (not just half) and heel padding for added comfort and cushioning.


These joints are wild, and are only $236. Available at South Willard
