moccasins

[Stuart]

does anyone know where you can get a really good pair of moccasins??
I would like to make a pair, but i think i'll buy my first pair

I reckon they would make nice camp shoes to get out of wet boots in the evenings (and pack down very small) plus i'm sure they would be good for stalking too


these guys make wonderful moccasins....... but check out the price :shock:

[Stuart]

[Jamie]

I usually change into a set of Reefs in the evenings.

 

[Stuart]

I will try blagging some as soon as i can find a company which makes them

 

[bothyman]

I presume you are after the high leg ones??

But you could try this one

Stu I made my own Apache high leg Moc's ages ago - have the pattern some where. They are easy to make. When I get home I'll dig it out for you.

 

[Stuart]

Thanks Gary that'd be great

Did anyone notice that this place seem to be selling swanndri ranger shirts for £35 (£60 from ray mears and most other places) I think they might be only doing that one colour but bit of a bargin.

Sorry that's nothing to do with mocs!

This thread has been idle for the best part of a year now.. i dont see the point in staring another so i shal ask my question here.. does anyone have/know where i can get hold of some moccasin patterns? there seem to be a lot of variations on a theme when it comes to mocs!

if anyone has made some would they give some advice/ take some photos of what they have made...

any info greatfuly received!

 

[Carcajou Garou]

I can get some mocassin patterns if you give me the shoe size and style. I have the pattern on hand for size 13 Apache high tops, one word of caution mocs are slippery unless you put on a crepe sole. PM me
Just a thought

 

[Stuart]

I should have mentioned that Gary lent me a plan and i finnished a very nice pair of high leg moccocins a few mounths ago.

they make stalking a whole new experiance

many thanks for the offer though

 

[RovingArcher]

Yep, they are excellent for stealthy movement. Even with the crepe soul.

 

[tomtom]
