Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) moccasins are traditional soft-soled footwear made by the Haudenosaunee peoples (also known as the Iroquois Confederacy, including nations like Mohawk, Seneca, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Tuscarora). These moccasins, reflect centuries-old craftsmanship from the Northeast Woodlands region.

They are typically handmade from deer or other animal hide (brain-tanned for authenticity in older pieces), featuring soft, puckered toes and flexible soles. The standout feature is intricate beadwork, usually raised or appliqué style with glass seed beads in vibrant colors.
