Unlike the company with the Minnesota-sounding name, our Moccasins and leather goods are actually made in the USA in Minnesota!
|
Itasca Leathergoods has been hand-crafting high-quality traditional soft-sole moccasins in our factory store in Lake George Minnesota since 1986. The facility is located approximately seven miles from Itasca State Park, headwaters of the Mississippi River. Each of the models produced is named after tributaries of the Mississippi River in honor of our heritage.
Our moccasins are made by true artisans who have honed their craft over time to achieve a consistent level of quality and fit. With that experience, our sewers have a high level of success at fitting hard-to-fit feet. In fact, custom orders are welcomed (at no extra charge) by utilizing foot tracings which can be faxed or mailed to our facility at the time of order.

Quality Leather from the USA
|
We use 100% natural leather, sourced and tanned in the United States. Our basic leather is cowhide, in either a soft suede or a supple full grain, both of which are intended to be worn outside. We also offer premium leathers that make our moccasins even more special. Elk is incredibly soft; buffalo is highly textured and gorgeous; moose is silky smooth; and sheepskin makes perfect slippers. Despite the premium nature of these game leathers (except for the sheepskin), all are intended to be worn outside, even without a hard rubber sole. Under normal wearing conditions our moccasins should last for several years.

A Great Selection of Styles for the Whole Family
|
We offer a huge variety of moccasins to fit everyone in the family - infants, children, women and men. The "Wapsi" are intended for infants and toddlers. The "Trimbelle" and "Maquoketa" models are specifically for the women and the children; they're light-weight but durable, made of 4.5-ounce leathers and have been worn in traditional Native American Powwows. The remainder of the models are based off from a traditional "canoe" bottom, a style that's been around for more than a century. We offer the canoe-style moccasin for men and women, plus a 4" high chukka boot, a 6" work boot, a long-fringed calf-height boot for women, as well as 12" and 16" high boots. Some models are customizable with beads or fringe. All are available in whole sizes only (half-sizes are usually sized down as leather naturally relaxes or stretches with wear).
