Golden Eagle Moccasins
G.E.Ms
Please use website on phone. I haven't updated this on computer version yet
As for now, I will be using this portion of my website to take orders. I am still working on creating my "Golden Eagle Moccasins" website and all of the logistics.
As for now, text me any questions you have or text me your order.
For the first 5-10 pair of moccasins, I will only charge you for materials.
I will need to make a cast of your foot using a duct tape method that my mentor taught me but if I am unable to see you in person, you can also do the mold yourself.
Give me a call or text and I can send you a video on how to do the mold yourself.
Let me know what you want and I can get started!
My number is 301-957-5144 or you can email me at [email protected]
I will ask for a $100 down payment for your moccasins to get started
You can venmo me @canyon-hunt

or paypal @canyonhunt

Once we figure out everything you want, I can add up materials and give you a final price for your finished moccasins
Below is everything I will need from you to know what you will want.
Material
The base of your moccasins will be made from Buffalo (also known as American Bison)
Buffalo/Bison offer a much stronger support and long lasting material that breaths well and is very water resistant.
Upon request, I can also make your base out of Elk (which is my second choice) or Bull hide (which is my 3rd choice)
Elk is thinner than the buffalo and won't last as long but is much softer and has a more traditional look.
Bullhide is almost as strong as buffalo but doesn't stretch and breath as well.
The pattern or design can be any color or material that you.
Buffalo, Elk, Bull, or even Deer.
A lot of patterns are made with deer. Deer hide is much thinner, easier for designs and has many more colors to choose from as well.
At the end of the day, these moccasins are yours and you can design them however you want.
Below, choose your colors

*Any additional colors you'd like
*lace color which will be made from Buffalo hide

Buttons
Decide on how many buttons you want on each moccasin.
The amount of buttons will determin how high or low you want the moccasin to come up your leg.
2 buttons - 5"
3 buttons - 7"
4 buttons - 9"
5 buttons - 11"
6 buttons - 13"
7 buttons - 15"
(7 buttons will be about just under your knee)
The pictures on my black moccasins are 3 button or 7"
As of right now, I don't have any buttons so just look online and decide on the buttons that you want and I can order them for you.
Toe cap and Heel cap
If you want a toe cap or a heel cap, I can do that for you. My moccasins do not have them and they do not change the strength of the moccasins - they are purely esthetic.
Here are two refrence photos of heel and toe cap vs no heel cap or toe cap.
(Pictures are from my mentors page - Sodhoppers moccasins)
Soles
The soles that I have on my moccasins are called "Goop" soles which give you a more traditional barefoot look (and feels more like barefoot shoes)
Goop soles is what I recommend as I am very big into barefoot shoes and believe that barefoot are very health beneficial but again... these are your shoes and I can make them however you want...
If there is a specific sole you want, let me know and I can order them for you.
Boot soles, Vibram soles, Heels or whatever you would like.
As far as idea's for your moccasins, the possibilities are endless and I can do almost anything that you want. Let me know and I will tell you if i cannot do it.
If you'd like to get some idea's on moccasins, go ahead and look at either
