Moccasin Madness - Who Knew?

From babies to grandparents, from average Joes to celebrities, moccasins are quickly becoming a necessary staple in fashionable footwear, and for more than just one reason.

Built to Last
Moccasins are typically made from tough, full-grain leather, a material that not only looks great, but stands up well to wear and tear too. Because it remains in its rugged and tough natural state, the leather maintains its strength. Full-grain leather also has an alluring degree of comfort because of its natural level of breathability and its waterproof tendencies.

Comfortably Convenient
Not only do moccasins tend to hold up quite nicely, they're quite comfortable too! As mentioned, natural leather moccasins maintain a level of comfort that allows your feet to breathe freely, but keeps them incredibly warm at the same time. Aside from the comfort of the actual moccasin material, the style itself is a major asset to these simple shoes. No laces! No Velcro! No elastic! Just pure, slip-on comfort. Moccasins are fast becoming one of the most popular forms of footwear, simply for the ease of being able to slip them on and kick them off on a whim.

Moccasin Moxie
Style is an entirely different aspect of moccasins. Lately, anybody who's anybody can be seen wearing these comfy slip-ons, and in many cases you won't find two pairs of moccasins alike. They can be dyed, contrast-stitched, adorned and accessorized to your personal liking. On the other hand; one of the most popular trends is parent-child matching moccasins. One of the first celebrity duos to sport the look was Courtney Cox Arquette and daughter Coco, each in a sassy pair of matching pink moccasins. If you'd rather be one-of-a-kind when it comes to your own moccasin moxie, try a purple pair with diamond studs and red beads! Or a black leather pair with contrast pink stitching! The point is that moccasins can be as traditional or as unique as you'd like them to be, and that's one reason that they're becoming such a staple in the wardrobes of the hip.

One Pair, Two Pairs, Three Pairs, Four!
One of the last and maybe most appealing reasons that moccasins are the new black is because of their relatively low price point. Typically, you can find a high-quality pair of great-looking moccasins for less than $75, which gives moccasin fans the option of accessorizing with more than one kitschy pair.

The bottom line is this: moccasins are back baby, so slip your tootsies into a pair of this season's newest must-have and experience the comfort of moccasin moxie for yourself!
