Women's Double Deerskin Softsole

Hi Maggie, Thanks for reaching out. The two layers of Deerskin are glued together with a comfy foam insole inserted between the two layers during production. Deerskin is a soft, supple leather so it will stretch over time and wear. The amount of stretching can depend on the frequency and length of wear. Regards, Minnetonka

Hi Rebecca! Softsoles, by their very nature of lacking a more structured rubber sole, are more suited for use as indoor shoes. Without rubber soles, softsole moccasins are ill-suited to be worn outdoors on concrete and pavement, as well as in elements such as rain, snow, mud, etc. With only suede (or leather) as the outsole, a thin callous can form with gentle wear which helps the moccasins last. But with more rigorous wear outdoors, the suede (or leather) wears through at a much faster rate since they are not intended as athletic wear.

Hi Holly. To allow room for stretching, we would recommend sizing down to an 8 in this style.

Hi Merrilyn. Unfortunately, this style is not available in wide.
