Boots of a boy
Fur boots tailored from hooded-seal fur.
Sewn with sinew.
The sole is made from bearded-seal fur.
A separate rim of sealskin, from which the hair has been removed, has been sewn onto the top edge of each boot.
By the 1970s, hardly any Tiniteqilaq children possessed a pair of traditional footwear.
They wear sports shoes and Wellington boots.
