These are up with my top ten all time best finds! The suede is light grey and firm. Not old firm, but purposefully made that way to keep their shape and provide support. They're soft on the inside and surrounded by lush dense shearling wool. They are truly the most unique and carefully crafted pair of moccasins I've ever come across. And yes, the black on the toes is leather. I've never seen a pair like it, and it's hard to part with them! EUC.Size 11 USLove - Valt Kids
