Hello Friends! I'm brand new to the forum. I was wondering if someone could shed some light on a project that I'm working on.
I'm a gigantic fan of Catskill Mountain moccasins. They are a buffalo hide moccasin boot. I'm really not sure about the history of this moccasin style, other than they are popular at renaissance fairs. I would love to learn more about the history of this style, if anyone could shed light.
I'm in the process of making a pattern to build my own, but I'm not so certain how to do the sole. If you look, it appears to be a 2- 3 layered sole. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to achieve this type of sole construction. If anyone has any insight, patterns, or experience making this type of moccasin, I'm all ears.
I have a theory for it, but would love some insight from someone with experience.
