Traditional mukluk boots redesigned in Norway with modern craftsmanship
There’s often just as much value in tradition as in the latest headline-grabbing tech. Just look at the story of Roald Amundsen. When he became the first explorer ever to reach the South Pole in 1911, he got there wearing traditional Inuit furs, while sailing over the snow on the latest skis from Europe. It’s that split view—one eye to the future, and one locked on the past—that Jørgen Amundsen, a member of Roald’s family, took as inspiration for Amundsen Outdoor Sports.
The Muck boots are modeled after Inuit mukluks, a traditional, layered footwear system with swappable inner fabric boots surrounded by a sturdy outer boot. Amundsen’s version uses precision shoe-making techniques and cutting-edge materials for a modern take on a centuries-old concept.
