How to Measure Your Foot Complete the following steps:
1 Helpful tip: Measure your feet later in the day - feet tend to swell and will be slightly larger then.
2 Before measuring, wear the socks that you plan to use with the shoes.
3 Place one foot on top of a piece of paper on a solid floor or surface and trace the outline of your foot, making sure to point the pen or pencil straight down.
4 Using a ruler or measuring tape, find the longest part of your foot by measuring a straight line from the tip of your longest toe to the back of the heel. For the most accurate reading, use centimeters.
5 Repeat the process on your other foot and use the larger of the two measurements if necessary. You may also want to add 1 to 1.5 centimeters to account for comfortable movement inside the shoe.
6 Use the chart above to find your size. Please note that sizing may vary slightly depending on the style and/or design of the footwear.

About the Artist
Janice Parsons
Inuk

Janice Parsons, an Inuk artist from the Nunavik region, is the creative force behind Yaya Inspirations. Inspired by her mother, a skilled seamstress, Janice started making earrings using sealskin, leather, and fox fur from her mother's scraps. Over time, her designs became more intricate, incorporating elements from her Inuit culture. As interest grew, Janice felt motivated to continue and share her creations with others. The name Yaya, a tribute to her late grandfather, symbolizes the deep bond they shared.

Care Guide

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.

    Best purchase I've ever made

    I have never been happier! Thank you for the incredible craftsmanship and fine detailing on these gorgeous boots. They're so comfortable and they don't just warm my feet, they warm my heart. I'm proud to wear something authentically made and I am already looking forward to my next purchase.

    My Favorite Boot; Grateful for it; is Perfection

    I love this boot! Fits perfectly true to size. I usually wear an 8 and I bought an 8. With a normal or thin sock or even barefoot it fit just a little snug the first day and then stretched to my foot to feel perfect and true to size and a glove. It was a little snug to get the ankle and foot in the first day, with no zipper but it gets easier as loosens to your foot and you put it on a few times. I love my 8 size in black. I did also buy the gray in the 9. Love it too. It slides on like butter. Actually love there is no zipper on them. Pefect height on my leg. I can wear it with a normal sock or a thick warm pair of socks in the fall or winter since I live in Wisconsin. The 9 is a little bit big for me, but a thick sock can help, and it makes sense because I am a size 8 and 9 is always large on my foot. I might need the third color they are that perfect. I have very high arches and I love the bendy sole of these but also the comfort and strength and stability of it too. I have ankle arthritis and and no cartilage left and these were a dream walking, standing and dancing. I love the turtles on the bottom too. Quality is amazing, no tearing or scuffing or wearing; after much walking and many wears. Very fashionable. Tons of compliments. I love dancing in them. They were perfect at the concert at Red Rocks in Colorado. I love the sound as you walk. I cannot recommend these enough and I wish I could rate them higher than 5 stars. I love that I am supporting the Indigenous…

    Very disappointed

    Size 5 normally. Ordered a size 7 based on other reviews and because it’s final sale. Can’t even get my foot to the bottom so I guess I will try to stretch them out. I loved how this looked and didn’t want to miss my chance to get them before a ceremonial dance.

    Beautiful

    I love these, and they're my finest fringe. The boots fit snug and are super lightweight. I put them on with some regular socks and thought there might be a size issue, but after I took the sock off, my 8.5 foot fit perfectly inside the supple interior. I have narrow calves, and while the boots aren't skin tight, they certainly don't have any major gaps. My hand fits easily inside, and could easily accommodate a knife. These are just stunning. Thank you Manitoba Muckluck, for your great customer service to get these on my feet and solving my problem. You guys are really the best, and I will continue to support this business.

Frequently asked questions

Absolutely! We make our moccasins and mukluks for everyone. By purchasing from us, you are participating in cultural appreciation, not cultural appropriation. When you purchase from Manitobah, you are directly supporting Indigenous people and celebrating Indigenous culture in an authentic, meaningful way that helping us in our vision to create positive impact in Indigenous communities.

To make our brand more accessible, to support our social impact initiatives, and to allow us to compete with other global fashion brands, we produce our products in international ethical partner factories. Our factory partners that support our growing product line go through an in-depth 3rd party inspection and internal Social Compliance Audit. These high standards are continually monitored and respected. We are proud of our manufacturing policies and our ability to build capacity globally. We believe that our success as an Indigenous business has been due to our willingness to walk forward while honouring our past.

Manitobah Mukluks makes a variety of products that match Canada's diverse climates. We offer select styles of adult mukluks that are waterproof. Those styles are tagged online as waterproof and can be seen here.

Both styles of children's mukluks are waterproof. They have been treated with our AuthenTEC waterproofing system; treated hide and an internal flexible coating that is inspired by pine pitch and spruce gum. Manitobah conducts rigorous waterproof and temperature testing using a minimum 50,000 flex standard.

The rest of the adult mukluks are constructed with natural suede and leather which are not sealed and not considered waterproof. We recommend treating them with a leather/suede protector to help with water resistance and general protection. All of our MUKLUKS are insulated with sheepskin footbeds and most are constructed with untreated suede which is porous (and not considered waterproof). These natural materials need to breathe in order to be effective in extreme cold. Indigenous people have been surviving in the coldest climates for thousands of years using this very wisdom.

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 Care Kit here

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

You can also use a pool noodle or something similar in the shaft to keep them upright during storage.

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.

Our sheepskin-lined mukluks are considered one of the warmest winter boots for northern winters and are rated down to -32 degrees Celsius. Partnering with Vibram has also allowed us to design a sole that allows your foot to bend. Research indicates that flexible soles promote proper foot movement and blood circulation to your toes. This means that in cold dry weather, our mukluks will allow your feet to stay warmer than almost anything on the market.
