Inuit

.






This undated photo released by Bata Shoe Museum, Toronto, shows a pair of boots made by Ungava Inuit Louisa Ippak from Blecher Island. She repurposed a pair of commercially made rubber-soled boots by replacing their shafts with handmade sealskin uppers. Her creation combines tradition with innovation and was designed to keep her son warm and dry. (AP Photo/Bata Shoe Museum, Toronto, Antony Vecera)
