Among the Penobscot, moccasins intended for use in the woods were generally made from moosehide and those for winter use were made from moose hocks. Unlike their rugged moosehide counterparts, deer skin moccasins were beaded. Designs for moccasin tops and cuffs were worked on wool or velvet. These fabric panels were bound with ribbons and sewn onto the completed hide moccasins.<\/p>\n
\n\n\n\nIroquois-style child’s moccasins, c.1900<\/strong><\/h4>\nThese moccasins are decorated with a simple leaf design

As the decorative work was done on cloth and attached to hide moccasins, tops could be acquired from one tribe and sewn onto moccasins made by another tribe. Fannie Hardy Eckstrom, in The Handicrafts of the Modern Indians of Maine (1932) noted that in the 1870s, Penobscot moccasin makers acquired tops decorated with moosehair embroidery from the Huron and attached them to locally-made deerhide footwear.<\/p>\n
