    I am sure someone had a leather bag, that they made to keep their moonboots in.

    More than likely I reckon. I would have had two made for me. One for each foot, so that I wouldn't be seen wearing moonboots in public!

    Brisbane doesn't get cold enough. Your feet would look like prunes!

    I had to punch a new hole in my belt! Not because it is stretching. It is made of Moose leather. I would recommend that to anyone. I was going to get another a few years ago but the guy who mad it died.

    What's Moose leather like? Deer hide that I've seen has always been very soft and supple and not very thick.


    I don't need to punch any extra holes in my belt. Moo Moos look silly when worn with a belt... No I don't actually wear a moo moo, but I do need to make a new belt for myself. My old one has seen better days.

    Not knowingly so Steph. But I do know that just about every critter on the face of the planet has enough brains to tan their own hides. Skin 'em out, scoop out their brain bucket and work it into the hide...I know the theory, but have never tried it. I will do one day though.

    The most similar one that I have seen is worn by my brother. He got it from an old harness maker.
