Monk-Strapped Moccasin Boots

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Quoddy Sipayik Moccasin Gets Your Feet Ready for the Colder Seasons

— August 27, 2012 — Fashion
The Quoddy Sipayik moccasin is a clever re-imagining of the classic moccasin style. By combining moccasin elements with a higher rise and bold-buckled monk strap, the shoe takes a traditional summer style and makes it appropriate for the winter.

The Quoddy Sipayik moccasin is available in natural leather or Horween Chromexcel, and the sole is made from Vibram. The shoe is a great alternative to the popular chukka style boot. Neutral enough to be worn with almost anything, this versatile footwear can be your winter go-to shoe.

Quoddy footwear is made by hand in Maine. The brand even goes a step further and makes each pair of its shoes made-to-order. A supremely useful pair of mid-rise shoes, the Quoddy Sipayik mocassin is a kick made with attention to detail resulting in a high-quality pair of footwear.
Trend Themes
1. Moccasin Boot Revival - There is an opportunity for footwear companies to create updated versions of classic moccasin styles with modern twists such as higher rises and bold buckles.
2. Handmade-to-order Shoes - The demand for personalized products is growing and creating a niche market for companies to offer unique, made-to-order footwear options.
3. Versatile Winter Footwear - With consumers seeking practical footwear options that can be worn in various settings, there is a growing trend for creating versatile, all-weather shoes like the Quoddy Sipayik moccasin boot.
Industry Implications
1. Footwear Manufacturing - Manufacturers can capitalize on the demand for handcrafted, personalized shoes while incorporating innovative design elements.
2. Fashion Retail - Retailers can offer consumers updated versions of classic styles such as moccasin boots that conveniently serve multiple roles in their wardrobes.
3. Outdoor Retail - Outdoor retailers can cater to those seeking versatile, all-weather footwear options by offering moccasin-style boots with durable soles and weather-resistant materials.
