The perfect winter boot? We think so. A streamlined take on the classic mukluk silhouette, the Tamarack Half Mukluk showcases the minimalist genius of our ancestors' design. We made it sleek and simple, highlighted by subtle etching that elevates the boot's aesthetic—but also extremely practical in a modern mid-calf height. It boasts a cozy sheepskin-lined footbed and is sealed against water to a height of four inches from the bottom. Rated to -25F. What is a Traditional Fit? Some of our mukluks and natural-soled moccasins are not built on a traditional foot last (the solid form on which most shoes are molded), so there is no "left" or "right" foot. This method has been used on Indigenous footwear for thousands of years. It's completely natural for the shoes to feel slightly "off" or awkward when new, but over time the natural materials will form to your foot and allow you to have a completely custom fit. Perfect for slush. The AuthenTEC Waterproof System lets you take on winter in style with boots crafted with three layers of waterproof sealant, rich waterproof leather and suede and a full sheepskin footbed that keeps you dry and cozy all day. Manitobah conducts rigorous waterproof and temperature testing using a minimum 50,000 flex standard. Features Foot Lining: Sheepskin Shearling Height: 9" Tall Materials: Grain Leather Sole: Glacier Grip Tipi Sole Shaft Circumference: 15" Temperature Rating: to -25F Care Protection Use a silicone-based leather/suede protector. Do not spray fur, as it contains natural protective oils. We offer a protecting spray as part of our recommended Care Kit. To Clean Leather can be cleaned using a gentle soap and soft brush. For salt, wipe down with a damp cloth. Even if they have been sprayed, salt is corrosive and can cause damage. To Dry Once wet, allow your footwear to dry naturally. Wear Never pull fur when putting on or removing boot, fur sheds over time and frequent friction will cause the fur to shed much faster. Cross laces over before tightening to avoid tearing leather eyeholes. Storage When ready to store them for the season you should clean them, allow them to dry and then pack them away in a sealed container away from heat, moisture and pets (a plastic storage tote works great.) You can also use a pool noodle or something similar in the shaft to keep them upright during storage.
