    Does anyone know where to find moccasins? that aren't full of the faux fur or whatever and arent mad expensive? i really want some but dont know where to find any. i guess i should check online but i hate buying things off the internet.

    In arizona? Nope.. can't help you. I have no moccasin connections in Arizona... If you can wait a couple months I will be back home and can get you some from a reservation... hand made the old way even. But I guess that would still be buying over the net.. as you don't know me from a hole in the ground.

    Canada, baby. Land of the Buffalo. The Great White North. Saskatchewan is the province. I mostly live near Cree Reservations. There is one about an hour from my house called White Bear.... and my Uncle works at another reservation further north called Yellow Quill. But long ago, there were Sioux, Lakota, Blackfoot and Cree in the area... now, mostly just Cree.

    BTW, now that I think about it, I have seen kits in craft stores that teach you how to make your own. They aren't hard to make.. I made some once when I was younger.

    http://jumaka.com/moccasins/MakingMoccasins/MoccasinInstructions.htm

    teaches you how to make "woodlands" mocs (leather with beading on top and fur trim). Let me know more specifically what you are looking for, and I will help if you want to try and make some yourself.
