treeseed commented on the word mukluks
Mukluks are a soft boot traditionally made of reindeer skin or sealskin and were originally worn by Arctic natives, including the Inuit and Yupik.
The word "mukluk" is of Yupik origin, from maklak, the Bearded Seal.
Mukluks weigh little and allow hunters to move very quietly. They may be adorned with pompons and beads and may be lined with furs such as rabbit, fox and raccoon.
