Did you know that each year during the middle of November we celebrate a lil grassroots event called
Rock Your Mocs?
It is international, no borders, and folks of all backgrounds are welcomed to join in.
It’s simple: during the middle of November, wear moccasins.
There really are no “rules,” but I have my suggestions. First, make sure that your mocs are supporting a Native-owned business or Native artist (no Forever21 moccasins, no Minnetonka moccasins, k?). Second, allow your feet to be happy.
Most folks snap a picture to share with their friends and social networks. This is great because it creates a culture of supporting diversity. You can also check out the #rockyourmocs hashtag to see the beautiful movement online.
Below, I've listed some of my favorite kinds of Native-made footwear. Head to the respective websites to view more options.
