Working remotely from home as I do, moccasin slippers have become an integral part of my day — mostly because I don’t have a formal office space. I tend to find myself carting my laptop around from room to room on the daily in order to find a quiet place not already in use by other members of my family.
Because I live in a 130-year old house, each space can sometimes feel like a completely different climate or environment, so a good pair of indoor moccasins comes in handy!
At times, I work on the living room sofa — but my toes tend to get cold, even in the summer. Laurentian Chief’s suede moccasins have a velvety interior that is luxuriously gentle against my bare feet. They provide just enough coziness without overheating.
When I need to move my work station to the kitchen island, the padded insole of my indoor mocs softens each step on the hard tile floor, and cushions the arches of my feet as I perch on a stool, typing away at my keyboard. In really nice weather, I take my laptop out on the screened-in porch. My moccasins are the perfect transition shoe in this space that is not quite indoors, not quite outdoors. Their soft bottom outsole gives me just enough protection underfoot from the floorboards, without having to change into a hard-soled outdoor shoe. The superior quality and design of these genuine cowhide suede moccasins is characterized by traditional detailing: Indigenous-inspired braided trim, with rows of fringe across the vamp, and around the heel, and finished off with rawhide laces. Laurentian Chief’s products are artisan-made in Quebec, Canada. Their suede indoor moccasins are a necessity of my nomadic at-home workday, as I make my way around the house. Flexible, comfortable, and classic, they also suit my casual work-from-home wardrobe, which is often jeans, sometimes a sundress, and occasionally - I admit it - pajamas. Women’s Suede Fringed Indoor Moccasins are available in Women’s sizes 4-10. Follow the link to order online for convenient delivery to your door:

In response to A. Lee:
We are not indigenous owned, but we honor and celebrate the cultural heritage of Canada. Our retail store in Westport Ontario has a rich history, which you can learn more about in our video. We have made the transition to online retail while continuing to sell Native moccasins, art, and gifts. You can watch our video here https://www.moccasinscanada.com/pages/about-us

Hello. Is this an Indigenous owned business? If so, I could not see anything to that effect on the website. In this day and age, there is so much cultural appropriation, and it would be good to know if it is Indigenous owned or not. This detail impacts whether I shop in certain businesses or not so it is actually important to know.
