Custom Buffalo Moccasins, Sheepskin Slippers & Handmade Leather Sandals

“For years I searched for real artisan footwear.  I knew what I was looking for:  A handmade leather sandal or moccasin that was unique, natural, and comfortable; classic leather footwear with timeless beauty and functional elegance.  Where did I find it?  In the pride of craftsmen of days gone by, in the functional designs of ancient civilizations, in a unique combination of genuine leathers and the best of materials available to the shoemaker of today.  Who was making it?  No one… at least not yet.  It was then I knew I was on the right path, a path of discovery and creation, a path with soul…”

- Nathan deBridge, artisan and creator of Soul Path Shoes, Slocan Valley, British Columbia, Canada.

What makes Soul Path Artisan Shoes unique?

• Each pair of our sandals, shoes, & moccasins is hand crafted by the artisan, ensuring attention to detail, and uniqueness in every pair.
• Designs that are artistic, elegant, and time-tested for function and comfort.
• Custom ordering ensures a perfect fit for those who won’t settle for less, or for those whose feet don’t fit well into standard shapes or sizes.
• Natural and renewable materials such as premium leather and sheepskin are trademark features in all Soul Path artisan shoes, sandals, & moccasins.
• No synthetics are used in any part of the footwear, other than rubber soling.  However, leather-only soles  are a custom feature available on all our models.
• Stitching at Soul Path Shoes is a function of durability, not just style.  The stitching in all our handmade leather sandals bonds the upper leather with all midsole layers, before the outer sole is cemented on.  Most sandals on the market use only a decorative stitch with no functional value.
• Every part of Soul Path Shoes footwear can be repaired or replaced, by us or by any qualified cobbler.  This point is of considerable significance:  Most modern footwear cannot be repaired because they are constructed with industrial machines, using synthetic materials and molded soles.  Soul Path Shoes are made by hand every step of the way, ensuring that they can be worked on by hand.
• Each pair of Soul Path Shoes that is purchased supports the artisan and his family, working from home in the mountains of the West Kootenays of British Columbia, Canada.
