Arctic footwear includes snowshoes and MUKLUKS. Snowshoes are a type of footwear used for walking on snow, consisting of a frame with a network of thongs or webbing to distribute the wearer's weight. MUKLUKS are a type of soft boot traditionally made of reindeer skin or sealskin, and worn by Arctic peoples, such as the Inuit, Yupik, and Chukchi. They are designed to keep the feet warm in cold weather and are often waterproof.
