THERE IS SOME BEED LOSS ON THE RIGHT MOCCASIN, IT OCCURS ON THE INSIDE OF THE HEEL ONLY, SO THE BEED LOSS IS CONFINED TO JUST ONE SIDE OF THE HEEL. IM SURE IT CAN BE FIXED OR RESTORED. THE LEATER IS VERY SOFT AND STILL VERY FLEXABLE. THE TIES LOOK TO NOT BE COMPLETE IN LENGTH, MAYBE THEY BROKE OFF, SOME ARE SHORT AND SOME ARE LONG. IM NOT POSITIVE OF THE AGE OF THE SHOES BUT THE MATERIAL AND THE CONSTRUCTION SUGGEST A FAIR AMOUNT OF AGE. I WOULD GUESS LATE 1800’S TO EARLY 1900’S. I DID SOME RESEARCH THAT SEEMS TO BE CONSISTANT WITH THAT AGE BRACKET. PLEASE SEE MY OTHER BEEDED INDIAN AUCTIONS AS WELL. THANKS AND GOOD LUCK. THE OVERALL LENGTH OF THE SHOE IS 12 INCHES AND APPROX 4 INCHES WIDE AT THE BALL OF THE FOOT.
