A 'handsewn' made by the American company Yuketen.

"Handsewn" is a word used to denote the variety of moccasin shoes that are partially sewn by hand, and which are a primarily American style owing to a melding of European and Native American styles.

Handsewn shoes typically have a more relaxed feel to them, and break in substantially with wear. They are made of leather or suede and feature moccasin stitching.
