SKODEN ANKLE BOOT

Please note that this style is not featured on the shelves of our Grande Prairie home.  If you would like to try it on at our Grande Prairie home, please share the style name, color, and size with our staff when you visit, and they will be happy to pull it out of the warehouse for you.

Designed by Diné footwear designer, Dewayne Dale Jr., the Skoden Ankle Boot is a lace-up mukluk style perfect for transitioning from fall to winter and customizable with interchangable laces. So, whether you’re heading out on the land or out for a walk in the city, slip on these mukluks and say “skoden” – Indigenous slang for “let’s go then.

This style has a rubber Tipi Glacier Grip, however it is not winter-lined.

How do they fit? Available in American Full Sizes only, this one does fit true to size for length.  They are not available in half sizes, so if you are one, you likely will need the half size larger, but still, you should try them on in person to confirm.  We don’t have any feedback on how much the leather will relax with wear, so if you have a truly wide foot you may struggle with the fit of this one.  Please try on in person to confirm:)  

The laces are somewhat adjustable, however, we are finding the fit to be a bit generous in the instep and heel.  They will not be a good option for narrower feet.

Important notes:

We strongly encourage you to try them on with the thickness of socks that you will normally be wearing them with.  

Please consider applying a silicon-based all-protector before wearing them outside, as it will make them much easier to wipe clean.  As always, please follow the instructions carefully on the bottle to avoid any potential color change.

This style has a lightly cushioned fashion footbed, if your feet need corrective arch support, they will not be the best option for you.

This style is manufactured in Vietnam, not Canada.  I know that is a touchy subject for some folks, if you want to provide feedback please reach out to Manitobah Mukluks directly 🙂
