The Blackfeet, known as "niitsiTaPi" (the "real people"), are known for their craftsmanship and artistic excellence. Honoring our cultural heritage, we named the company after our ancestors who passed on their appreciation of both tradition and the arts.
With your purchase, TPMOCS is able to take action to address poverty in Native American communities. Our goals are simple. One, employ Native Americans to handcraft each pair of moccasins. Two, use a portion of the profits to purchase necessities for underprivileged children living on reservations. And three, keep our traditions alive.
Each pair is cut, sewn, sinewed and branded by Native American artisans. Our moccasins are handcrafted every step of the way to ensure quality.
We invite you to design your own pair (at no extra cost!) and encourage you to learn more about the tribes spread throughout North America.
Footwear sizing with babies can be such a wild card! Trust us, we feel your pain. But rest assured, we are here to help. The best method to true sizing is to measure your little one's foot and compare it to our moccasin-sizing chart below. In the event you want reassurance, no problem!
In the event your baby is in-between sizes, we’d suggest ordering the larger size. While leather will stretch with wear, our moccasins are truly handcrafted upon your order by Native American artisans and take up to 2 weeks before completion and shipment. In our opinion, it is better to grow into a pair of moccasins than to receive a pair too small.
Please keep in mind that sizes 0-3 are handcrafted with soft soles. Our sizes 4-7 are handcrafted with hard soles to accommodate those first steps!
